Flutter Entertainment’s UK & Ireland CEO Conor Grant will step down later this year, to be replaced by former Booking.com executive Ian Brown.
Grant’s decision to relinquish the top job comes ahead of a planned career break. He wants to spend more time with his family after having worked for over 20 years in iGaming.
Taking over from Grant is Brown, a newcomer to the business who will join Flutter in September. The executive previously served as CEO for Booking.com’s Trips division, which includes Rentalcars.com.
The outgoing and incoming CEOs will work together to ensure a smooth transition, Flutter said. The group’s overall Chief Executive, Peter Jackson, thanked Grant and gave a warm welcome to Brown.
