Bookmaker William Hill has appointed three new non-executive directors: John O’Reilly, former managing director at Coral Interactive; Robin Terrell, former chief customer officer at Tesco; and Mark Brooker, former chief operating officer at Betfair.
The British betting firm has been under fire following a tumultuous year, in which it lost a chief executive and was forced to call off a transformative merger after key shareholders refused to back the deal.
The three men have extensive experience in the gambling and retail industries and may boost a board that has suffered heavy criticism from investors.
The bookmaker remains without a permanent chief executive after James Henderson abruptly stood down in July, amid growing concerns over its digital strategy.
