Biography for Andrew McIver
Andrew has long been involved with a host of successful gaming
businesses and, for the last three years, has been Non-Executive
Chairman of a leading Italian gambling company, Planet Win/SKS365
Malta Ltd, as it has grown its EBITDA from GBP25 million to GBP65
million.
From mid-2016 to early 2018, Andrew was Group Chief Executive of
Jackpotjoy plc, one of the world's largest online bingo companies
at the time, with an EBIDTA of GBP100 million. With global
operations, it was initially listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange
as a roll-up vehicle, rapidly growing through an acquisition
strategy. Upon joining as CEO, Andrew moved the listing to the
London Stock Exchange and successfully refocused the business on
operations.
Prior to this, for over a decade, Andrew was on the board of
Sportingbet plc, first as Chief Financial Officer and then as Group
Chief Executive Officer. Established in 1998, Sportingbet was one
of the first online gaming companies and as CFO, Andrew oversaw the
financing for its $300 million acquisition of Canada's Paradise
Poker.
Andrew has also been Director of Finance for House of Fraser plc
and held senior roles at British Telecom plc, Hilton Group Finance
plc (now Ladbrokes Group Finance plc), and Signet Group plc (now
Signet Group Limited). He has also acted as a Non-Executive
Director for both AIM-quoted and private companies. He began his
career as a Chartered Accountant with Arthur Andersen LLP,
following which he moved into corporate finance at Kleinwort
Benson.
Ronny Breivik, Executive Chairman of B90, said:
"I am delighted to welcome Andrew and Farzad to B90. I have had
the privilege to know and work with Andrew for many years, a
respected individual in the gaming industry, with a wealth of
unmatched experience. Farzad is also very well known in the
industry, and it is pleasure to be working with him again too.
"Andrew and Farzad's appointments follow the appointment of Mark
Blandford, founder of Sportingbet plc, as a Strategic Adviser to
B90 earlier this year. Our team look forward to pooling our vast
insight, knowledge, strategic experience, and networks to
capitalise on opportunities which we have in our sight, and with a
clear and open runway for growth."
