The global slots supplier Wazdan has undertaken a major shuffle in its executive team, with a number of high-profile hires and promotions adding a wealth of experience to the provider’s workforce.

On a senior level, Tomasz Tajeldin has been brought in as a senior CRM specialist, Lukasz Kasprzyk has joined as Head of Operations, while Andrzej Hyla has been promoted to Chief Commercial Officer.

In his new role, Tajeldin will be responsible for driving Wazdan’s campaigns and planning strategy across game rollouts, bringing more than six years of iGaming experience to the supplier. Tajeldin will also take control of Wazdan’s promotional activity, centred around the supplier’s Cash Drop promotional tool.

Kasprzyk has more than seven years’ experience and will form a vital pillar in Wazdan’s CRM and Data Analysis departments, developing an engaging, customer-centric approach, while also enhancing the company’s data analysis capabilities. He will also lead Wazdan’s Account Manager team.

Like many other team members, Hyla has been working for Wazdan since the very beginning, having impressive 12 years of experience in the business. Now, his internal promotion sees him become responsible for key commercial growth in major targeted regulated markets across the globe as Wazdan looks to continue to expand its footprint.

Wazdan’s appointments have not only been limited to the executive level, with the supplier enlarging its presence globally with 39 new hires last year across all aspects of the company, including graphic designers, animators, and game developers, as well as boosting the sales and marketing teams.

Justyna Flajszer, HR Manager at Z Management, who is responsible for recruitment at Wazdan, said: “While last year presented its challenges, Wazdan continued to dynamically grow its global presence and added 39 new hires to the team during 2020. With both the senior leadership and company growing consistently, it is a very exciting time for Wazdan and we eagerly look forward to many more successes in 2021.”

Kasprzyk commented: “It is a unique moment in Wazdan history, with the company achieving great progress to date but with so many more opportunities to come. It’s great to be part of a team that is so dedicated and ambitious.” Tajeldin added: “Joining such a well-known brand is very exciting and it is fantastic to work with talented and experienced people on a daily basis.”

Hyla stated: “The past 12 months saw us achieve plenty and I can’t wait to be more involved than ever before in taking the company to new heights. There’s lots to come from Wazdan and it’s a journey we can’t wait to continue.”
