Sky Betting & Gaming’s (SBG) former MD of people and brands, Rob Painter, has been appointed as a non-executive director at Fall off the Wall (FOTW).
Painter, who spent almost six years at SBG, joins FOTW having worked alongside the creative agency while in marketing at the Leeds-based operator.
Painter said: “For more than 10 years, FOTW have been the trusted creative agency partner for Sky Bet and SBG’s gaming brands.
“FOTW have been an integral part of the transformation of SBG, helping them continually deliver performance and market-beating results in a highly competitive sector.
“As I consider my next full-time role, I’m delighted to now be able to help them with their own continued growth and development – they really are an hidden jewel who deserve greater industry recognition.”
Painter, who spent more than a decade at News International in roles including marketing director of The Sun, is awaiting his first full-time role since leaving Sky Bet in January 2019.
