Schjelde returns to EveryMatrix as CFO

David Schjelde is to re-join software development company EveryMatrix as its chief financial officer.

Schjelde began his first spell at EveryMatrix in 2007 when he served as CFO of BetBrain, before going on to hold similar roles with several companies outside the gambling sector.

Now back with EveryMatrix, he will focus on optimising the company’s financial performance across its many business units, including its flagship CasinoEngine product.

“I was delighted to see how the company expanded over the years and it gives me great satisfaction to be here,” Schjelde said.

“Leading the financial operations will be challenging for sure, especially since the casino business more than doubled in the last year.”

EveryMatrix CEO Ebbe Groes, who first met Schjelde in 2000 when he was with Kapow Technologies, added: “Further expanding our top management team is key for us since the business continues to grow year after year.

“Bringing David on board is an important step as he is a highly knowledgeable and appreciated expert. His practical and resourceful approach proved to be invaluable in the past and I am certain his vast expertise in both financial management and law will help us improve our operations and better identify potential opportunities in the iGaming sector.

“With the massive volumes of casino transactions from the largest operators in Norway and Germany, financial accuracy is more important than ever.”

The appointment comes after EveryMatrix last week named Rafael Campuzano as its new chief technology officer. Campuzano, who was previously CTO of Bit8, will lead the company’s technology strategy and operations from its office in Bucharest, Romania.
