The pair previously worked together at Ladbrokes Coral, where Walker was managing director of sports brands between 2016 and 2017.
Zamboglou will be tasked with developing William Hill’s digital growth strategy in the UK market.
He told EGR: “There’s nothing more exciting than getting to work with huge brands and William Hill is the biggest brand in the UK market when you look at collective digital and retail share.
“With the landscape in the UK rapidly evolving, there’s no better time to join such an innovative business to help drive a strategic roadmap that builds on their strong position in the market.
“I’m hugely excited about teaming up with Phil again and some of my previous colleagues from Ladbrokes Coral, given the great momentum they’ve built going into 2020,” he added.
Walker was appointed UK Online MD in November 2018 as part of a major restructuring following William Hill’s £242m acquisition of Mr Green.
