Shannon will depart the company by June 30.
Australia.- Entain has announced that Dean Shannon will step down as CEO of Entain Australia and New Zealand on June 30. The company said the businesses would enter a new phase of development and that Shannon had “agreed it is time for change”.
Andrew Vouris will take the role on an interim basis until a permanent CEO is found. Formerly deputy chief operating officer of wagering and media at Tabcorp, he has led Entain’s foray into esports.
Stella David, group CEO of Entain, said: “We thank Dean for his significant contribution to Entain, and for managing the Australian and New Zealand businesses. The growth and integration of Neds and Lads into our global portfolio of podium position brands has been a particular highlight and he has more recently delivered what we believe is a market leading compliance programme in Australia.
“As the Australian business enters its next phase, we will continue to demonstrate our commitment to compliance and responsibly deliver great products to our customers.”
