GameOn has appointed Fana Colette as Senior Social Media Manager, as the B2B marketing agency expands its social media service capabilities.

Colette joins from Gambling.com Group, where GameOn said she helped grow social pages to “tens of thousands of followers,” combining creative storytelling with commercial objectives.

GameOn positioned the hire as a response to increasing demand for social media strategy across iGaming operators, suppliers and affiliates looking to differentiate in a crowded market. The company said Colette will add senior oversight to structured, audience-focused content planning.

In the role, Colette will work with GameOn’s existing clients and lead social media strategy for new accounts, according to the company.

Lizzie Thomas, Head of Social Media at GameOn, said: “Bringing Fana on board allows us to support the growing demand for sophisticated, senior-led social strategies.

“Her experience in building social profiles from the ground up and developing content that resonates with audiences aligns perfectly with how we approach social at GameOn.”

Fana Colette, Senior Social Media Manager at GameOn, added: “I’m excited to be joining GameOn at such a dynamic time for the business.

“Social media is such an important part of how brands build visibility, trust and engagement, and I’m looking forward to helping clients create content that is both strategically grounded and creatively strong.

“GameOn has a clear understanding of the iGaming space, and I’m excited to contribute to that with thoughtful, audience-focused social work.”
