What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead risk/product strategy for iGaming or sports betting, drive data-led optimization, mentor teams, and implement scalable tool ecosystems in regulated environments.

I am an iGaming risk management and product leader with extensive experience advising executives, designing risk frameworks, and leading product development for sports betting operations. I have a strong track record of improving market coverage, reducing defects, and modernizing tool ecosystems.

As a managing director and principal consultant, I architect risk intelligence, implement data-driven KPIs and dashboards (Domo, Power BI), and ensure regulatory alignment with authorities such as MGA and UKGC. I have led deployments of third-party solutions, agile in-house development (JIRA), and authored executive KPI briefings linking improvements to EBITDA impact.

Throughout my career I have managed large teams, controlled multi-million-euro betting limits, and designed markets for major events with near-perfect uptime. I focus on practical, measurable outcomes: reducing latency, cutting critical defects, expanding market coverage, and slamming fraudulent activity.
