In his new role, Carrion will focus on developing “a high performing organisation” that is “capable, focused and resilient.” He has also been tasked with better aligning Gaming1’s technology, business and marketing segments.

Regarding his appointment, Carrion thanked the company and expressed an optimistic attitude concerning its future.

“I’m proud to have been trusted as COO Interactive for one of the industry’s most exciting and ambitious brands. During my time here, the company has excelled in every area and continues to see rapid growth,” said Carrion.

“We have bold aspirations for the future, our goal for the Gaming1 interactive business line is to outperform market growth, we are set to double our revenues within the next five years. We aim to do this based on scalability and by delivering real quality to the player.”

Carrion was selected for his industry experience, having previously worked for Spanish casino operator Cirsa, a subsidiary of investment giant Blackstone, and at ‘The Stars Group’ — a Canadian gambling company that is now part of Flutter Entertainment.
