Buzz Bingo promotes from within for new chief product officer
David Evans steps up to new role after three years with firm across its digital operations division
Buzz Bingo has promoted former Rank Group head David Evans to become the operator’s new chief product officer.
Evans originally joined Buzz Bingo in January 2020 as a digital operations director and will now make the step up to the firm’s C-suite.
He joined the operator after a three-year stint with High 5 Games as director of operations.
Evans previously spent more than eight years with Rank Group across a series of roles between 2008 and 2016.
He initially linked up with the company as a VIP manager before being named head of VIP two years later.
Positions as head of ecommerce and senior head of multi-channel followed in the remainder of his time with the group.
Evans’ promotion to chief product officer follows a shift in Buzz Bingo’s senior management last year.
Former Buzz Bingo CEO Chris Matthews stepped down at the end of last year and was replaced by COO of digital Dominic Mansour, while former chief commercial officer Stevie Shaves was shifted to a new position as COO for retail in August 2022.
