In an open letter to KaFe Rocks Group posted on social media, CEO Simon Pilkington announced that he will be moving on after five years with the company. He says that his departure will give the opportunity “to allow someone else the privilege of leading this exceptional business”.

The CEO said he will be leaving the group at the end of this year. He expressed his passion for the iGaming industry and stated that he will be taking time out to “refresh” and “recharge”. Mr Pilkington intends to pursue his interests in the wine and spirit industry by acquiring further internationally recognised accreditation.

Mr Pilkington concluded his ‘letter’ and announcement by drawing attention to the employment vacancies available that included the hire for his current role.
