BGO Entertainment appoints new CEO

The online casino operator has made the appointment ahead of the opening of its new Gibraltar office.

Guernsey.- The online casino operator BGO Entertainment has appointed Mark Quayle as chief executive as it prepares to open a new office in Gibraltar.

Quayle was previously head of UK operations for Kindred Group, which he joined through the Unibet operator’s acquisition of 32Red in 2017. 

Prior to that, Quayle worked at Betdirect from 2003 until its acquisition by 32Red in 2006. 

BGO has apparently been without a chief executive since Andrew Bentley left the role late in 2019. 

The company’s co-founder Alex Holt said Quayle’s appointment would help the company’s growth as it opens a new office in Gibraltar with the aim of hiring local talent.

He said: “Mark was an integral and valued part of the management team [at Kindred] who successfully grew the 32Red brand and we’re confident his experience with such a large casino operator will be a huge asset to BGO.”
