Thunderkick appoints Ariadna Ölund to bolster Latin American operations

New Account Manager further diversifies growing Thunderkick team

Independent slots studio Thunderkick has unveiled Ariadna Ölund as new Account Manager to support its LatAm expansion goals.

The addition of Ölund continues Thunderkick’s employee diversification – following the arrival of native Italian Andrea Brioschi last year – as the provider continues to develop and tailor its product offering towards targeted markets.

Ölund will join the wider team at the Stockholm headquarters before travelling to SBC Lisbon just four weeks after starting the role, with the Account Manager keen to build relationships and meet prospective clients face to face.

Ölund has a wealth of experience in the marketing sector, previously occupying the positions of PR Communications Manager and Marketing Communications Manager. Born in Barcelona and now based in Stockholm, Ölund will bring valuable Spanish language skills to Thunderkick as the supplier targets further development across the globe.

Thunderkick debuted on the LatAm stage in Q2 of 2023, launching in Mexico with Rush Street Interactive-owned Rushbet. It has since amplified that presence, with Ölund appointed to forge relationships with leading brands in regulated markets such as Mexico, Colombia, and Paraguay.

Svante Sahlström, Chief Commercial Officer at Thunderkick, said: “We are excited to welcome Ariadna to the Thunderkick team. This region remains a focal point for commercial growth, and we have no doubt Ariadna will be pivotal in supporting our Latin American expansion.”

Ariadna Ölund, LatAm Account Manager at Thunderkick, added: “I am delighted to have joined such an innovative company in the industry and am looking forward to building relationships that allow Thunderkick to enhance its footprint on the global stage.”
