BetMakers has announced the appointment of Carl Henschke as its new Chief Financial Officer (CFO), starting in July 2024.
Henschke's appointment follows Anthony Pullin's resignation as chief financial officer in March, a position he held for five years.
The new CFO has 17 years of experience in financial services, capital markets and law, with skills spanning financial planning and analysis, strategy, capital management and mergers and acquisitions.
Early in his career he was an attorney in the corporate group at Herbert Smith & Rich LLP, and for the past decade he has been an investment banker.
Henschke most recently served as Managing Director at Canaccord Genuity, focusing on software and digital businesses, including those in the gaming and betting space.
Jake Henson, CEO of BetMakers, said: “We are delighted to welcome Carl as the company’s new Chief Financial Officer. He brings a wealth of financial expertise and a deep understanding of high-growth technology companies, making him an ideal fit for BetMakers.
“Carl’s experience will be instrumental as we continue to improve operating efficiencies, expand our global presence and enhance shareholder value.”
In recent company news, BetMakers has signed a two-year market access and content agreement with bet365, under which the operator will offer fixed-odds betting on Thoroughbred horse racing to customers in New Jersey; and distribution of BetMakers' Thoroughbred and harness racing content to customers in Colorado.
