The UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) has confirmed a new Executive Director of Operations amid a government-backed campaign against the black market.
Sue Young, an experienced civil servant, was confirmed in the role this afternoon (16 March). She joins the Commission from HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC), the UK tax office, where she was Director of Debt Management.
Young’s career in the UK government has included tenures at the Home Office, where she worked with the Border Force and HM Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services, and the Department of Health and Social Care.
She joins the Commission amid a wider structural change to the regulator’s leadership, with Andrew Rhodes due to step down as Chief Executive at the end of April.
