GVC Holdings PLC has appointed Dean Shannon as CEO of its Australian business, which incorporates the Ladbrokes and Neds brands. He succeeds the outgoing Australian CEO Jason Scott.

Shannon was already serving as a Non-executive Director and consultant to the Group’s Australian operations following the sale of the Neds International business he founded to GVC in November 2018.

“We are delighted to announce Dean’s appointment. He is a highly dynamic, experienced leader with the entrepreneurial skills that will drive our Australian business to even greater success in the future. I’d also like to put on record my thanks to Jason Scott for the job he has done in establishing the Group as a market leader in Australia,” Kenneth Alexander, CEO of GVC said.

“I am truly excited to be leading GVC’s Australian businesses. I believe that in Ladbrokes and Neds we have two of the leading brands in the market, and backed by our proprietary technology and highly talented team, we are very well placed for growth,” Dean Shannon said.
