Metric Gaming appoints Marc Thomas as new chief commercial officer

With over 25 years’ experience in the industry, Thomas has held senior roles for operators and suppliers including William Hill, Betfair, 888, Sportingbet and SIS.

Since 2017, he has provided consultancy services to multiple organisations within the global sports betting supply chain, including operators, suppliers, regulators, rightsholders and startups.

Metric Gaming specialises in sportsbook technology and does business in multiple licensed jurisdictions in Europe as well as New Jersey, Colorado, Pennsylvania and Michigan in the US.

“This is a hugely exciting time to be joining Metric and I welcome the opportunity to help grow the business. Metric has a well-earned track record in providing innovative and premium products to tier-one operators, and I look forward to the challenge of widening our list of partners,” Thomas said.

“Metric will be exhibiting at ICE 2022, and myself and the experienced and knowledgeable team will be on hand to discuss any sports betting requirements you may have. If you’re looking for an upgrade to your current platform, or more details on our innovative and bespoke trading and risk management solutions, feel free to get in touch to book a meeting slot.”

This news comes after Metric announced a partnership with Lacerta Sports, which will see the supplier have access to the multiple risk and trading management solutions powered by Starlizard, available for the 2022-23 football seasons.

Keith Hayes, CEO at Metric Gaming, said, “Marc is a strong addition to the leadership team and exactly the sort of person we were hoping to recruit. Aside from his pedigree as a bona fide industry expert, Marc is someone you can trust. He’s joining at an exciting time in the company’s evolution and I have no doubt he will play a decisive role in our future success.”
