Resignation of Chief Financial Officer
BetMakers Technology Group Ltd (ASX:BET) (“BetMakers” or the “Company”) advises that Anthony Pullin has given
notice of his resignation as Chief Financial Officer.
Mr Pullin commenced with BetMakers over 5 years ago and has been instrumental in the growth and development of
the BetMakers business. Mr Pullin’s last day will be Wednesday 27 March 2024.
BetMakers CEO Jake Henson said, “We thank Anthony for his significant contribution to BetMakers. Over the past 5
years Anthony has been a valued senior team member, adding financial rigour to our business. He leaves BetMakers
in a strong position, with the foundations now in place for the Company to achieve profitability. We wish Anthony all
the very best for his future endeavors where I have no doubt he will be an extremely highly valued team-member.”
The process for appointing a replacement CFO is progressed, and BetMakers expects to provide a further market
update on this shortly. In the interim period, BetMakers’ Group Financial Controller, Warrick Van Der Merwe, will act
as interim CFO. Warrick has been with the Company approximately 3 years and previously led the Australian and Group
financial reporting teams reporting directly to Anthony.
