Bede Gaming, a subsidiary of the Gauselmann Group since 2020, has named Dan Whiteley as its new Chief Technology Officer. With over two and a half decades of experience in the technology sector, Whiteley will succeed Andy Wardle, who vacated the position earlier this year.
Whiteley’s notable background includes leadership positions at organizations such as Jugo, CTS, and even the international gaming powerhouse, Flutter. His proficiency lies in directing digital overhauls and developing technical blueprints for product development, infrastructure, IT services, cybersecurity, and daily operations.
“I am excited to join Bede and begin this new chapter,” expressed Whiteley. “The company possesses a rich history of engineering prowess, and I am enthusiastic about expanding upon that groundwork.”
Whiteley’s arrival is anticipated to strengthen Bede’s operational capacity and propel its subsequent growth stage. His aptitude for constructing high-performing, adaptable solutions will be paramount, particularly given that Bede’s platform handles over £7 billion (roughly $9 billion) in bets each year.
Colin Cole-Johnson, Bede’s CEO, enthusiastically welcomed Whiteley, remarking, “He will assume a crucial part in propelling our technology roadmap and will collaborate closely with all departments throughout the organization.” He further underscored Whiteley’s significance, both within the company and externally, emphasizing his vast background in technology leadership.
This tech firm has been making headlines! Following the appointment of Kirsty Stewart as their new Chief Legal and Client Officer earlier this year, and the onboarding of Cole Johnson as CEO in March 2022, the company has revealed another significant shift in leadership.
