Irish bookmaker BoyleSports has appointed former William Hill director Vlad Kaltenieks as chief executive.
The digital gambling and betting shop operator, sponsor of the Irish Grand National at Fairyhouse in Co Meath, confirmed the appointment on Wednesday. Mr Kaltenieks replaces Mark Kemp who left the company in July after just a year at the helm.
Mr Kemp, who formerly held senior positions at the UK Tote Group and Entain, left to join global sports streaming platform DAZN, which is headed by former Entain chief executive Shay Segev.
BoyleSports, which is headquartered in Dundalk, was founded in 1989 and is Ireland’s largest independent bookmaker.
