SKILL GAMING CHALLENGE FOR OWEN O'DONNELL
Top skill gaming post for ex-Betfair money man
Remember Owen O'Donnell? He was the top financial man at Betfair
between 2003 and 2005 before being replaced - to the surprise of many - and moving
on to pastures greener, in the shape of King.com, an Internet skill gaming
outfit.
Owen O'Donnell has just been appointed chief financial officer at King.com, a post
for which he is well qualified by training and experience, having worked in senior
management positions for the Financial Times, A.C. Neilsen and Pearson
plc before his move to Betfair in 2003.
He is widely attributed with doing much of the groundwork to support that business
at a key stage of its development including reorganising the corporate
structure, implementing financial planning and reporting systems and strengthening
the control environment to help further growth.
