As Deputy CEO, Lapin will be responsible for overseeing multiple different business areas and monitoring their focus, efficiency, profit and loss.
He will also continue to perform many of his previous COO duties, such as enhancing the product portfolio and brand identity.
On his appointment, Lapin said: “I am delighted to embrace the new challenges the role of Deputy CEO will bring.
“I have enjoyed working alongside my team at Playson for many years and look forward to having the honour of taking on more responsibilities in the company.
