The Rank Group has announced that the managing director of Rank Interactive, Jon Martin, will be taking on a new role in the organisation as the Chief Operating Officer. He is making the move to this new role over the coming months.
The Rank Group’s New Chief Operating Officer
This new announcement from The Rank Group sees the organisation strengthening its top team with the new and valuable addition of Jon Martin. Martin first became the managing director at Rank Interactive in 2020 but is going to make the move from Gibraltar to the UK to take on this new role.
The role of the chief operating officer is to oversee the development and growth of the company as a whole. The Rank Group owns many prominent names in the gambling industry including Mecca Bingo and Grosvenor, and so a key area of this new role will be developing these brands. Another area that will fall to Martin’s new role will be overseeing performance and strategy related processes.
Both the digital and retail sides of both of these brands will fall under this new job role as well as helping to develop a seamless cross-channel experience. The group is now on the hunt for a new Rank Interactive managing director.
Martin has stated that he is excited to help The Rank Group grow and to play an important role in the company’s growth strategy.
