Outgoing Gambling Commission chief executive Andrew Rhodes linked to role in wider sector
Summary
The Gambling Commission has confirmed that outgoing chief executive Andrew Rhodes will be taking a role in the wider gambling sector, specifically with Hawkbridge, a new international strategic advisory firm. Rhodes, who departs at the end of next month, has already stepped back from duties that could present a conflict of interest, with those responsibilities being covered by deputy chief executive Sarah Gardner and other executive team members. The Commission stated that Rhodes will be bound by confidentiality obligations and post-employment restrictions to protect the integrity of their work. Hawkbridge was created by Harris Hagan, a specialist gambling law firm, and aims to provide clear, independent advice to key decision-makers in the increasingly complex gambling landscape.
