UK Online Casino Group Appoints MD

23rd January, 2015

One of the UK online casinos industry's biggest poacher turned game keepers has announced the appointment of their new MD, as they look to grow their business further in the newly regulated UK online casinos scene.

Alderney based online casino group BGO Entertainment have promoted their CFO, Hannah Westley to the role of MD - working for online casino super affiliate and now gaming operator Richard Skelhorn.

Skelhorn has grown his casino, insurance and loan affiliate business into a hugely successful gaming operator, offering the likes of Sing Bingo, Costa Bingo and City Bingo - as well as recently launching BGO Casino - which is currently being advertised in the UK with Hollywood superstar Verne Troyer as the face of the brand.

Since launching as an operator, Skelhorn and partner Alex Holt have sold part of their business to Intertain Group - including their Mandalay Media range of brands.

Westley joins BGO as MD, having worked for various guises of the company for over eight years, originally joining Skelhorn back in 2007 at the HQ in Norwich.

As well as having their own affiliate sites, online casinos and online bingo sites, BGO also launched their very own iGaming platform, after launching their own software to make online casinos slots games.
