Jette Nygaard-Andersen

Entain the gambling firm that owns Ladbrokes and Coral are in advanced talks to appoint Jette Nygaard-Andersen as the next Chief Executive of the company.

According to Sky News and now several other news outlets the company could as soon as next week announce the new appointment. It would also be the first woman CEO to run a FTSE100 Company.

Currently Jette who comes from Denmark is a non-executive Director with Entain for just over 1 year and following the iGaming Post article this week on opportunities for Women in the top job we are delighted to hear that not only is a company looking to recruit from within but also considering giving a woman a chance to steer a major company.

Star Sport who compiled the odds this week on the new boss of Entain are now offering 6/4 favourite that Jette will be offered the role.
