QiH Group has announced the appointment of Simon Winder as its new Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as the former Spotlight Sports Group (SSG) executive looks to assist the company in its latest phase of growth.
Winder moves on from his previous role with SSG after seven years. QiH will hope that his 10 years of experience within the gambling and sports industries will help shift the affiliate organisation into its next phase of growth. As part of his new role, Winder will now oversee all QiH’s financial operations, drawing up long-term finance strategies to help push for expansion in the coming years.
After unveiling a number of strategic hires within its UK team last November, Winder’s appointment marks the completion of QiH’s C-level executive hiring phase – which has seen the company recently appoint a new CMO, CTO and COO.
Commenting on his appointment, Winder stated: “After a wonderful and rewarding seven years with SSG, it’s great to be moving to a young company with the reputation for innovation, growth and compliance that QiH Group has. Having watched the affiliate’s progress from the outside these past four years, it will be extremely fulfilling to be part of the action!”
This sentiment was echoed by the company CEO and Co-Founder, Jamie Walters, who said: “We’ve made no secret of the fact that our business is growing fast. FY2023 delivered 75% growth in both revenue and profit and 2024 is on track to achieve the same again.
“Simon is an integral part of the formula we need to support this growth and to help take QiH Group into the next phase of our business. Massive thanks to our incredible HR Director, Andrea Talreja, and her incisive and insightful executive search that has brought us the support at C-level that we need to forge ahead.”
