Arnold Ash has successfully completed several senior searches at The Pools reinforcing the leadership team and will continue to provide executive recruitment services as the company transforms and grows.

Jon Arnold, CEO of Arnold Ash, said: “I’ve known James Arnold for a long time and contrary to popular industry belief, he isn’t my brother or cousin! We worked closely together during his successful tenure as COO at LiveScore Group and Arnold Ash couldn’t be happier to now also be working as the executive recruitment partner for The Pools.

“The Football Pools means so much to so many people in this country. It is a truly iconic and nostalgic British brand and one that we are proud to work with as we help to support James and his management team’s vision and strategy. We have already placed some excellent professionals with them, as we continue to provide leading operators and suppliers with the very best integrated talent solutions.”

James Arnold, CEO of The Pools, said: “This is a hugely exciting time for The Pools as we get ready to launch our new app and go live with a new CRM system which will showcase our player-centric approach and how we are using technology to engage today’s modern gaming player.

“People and talent are crucial to the success of any company, and I have always been incredibly impressed with the way Arnold Ash rapidly integrate into a business to become a trusted, strategic partner. They provided me with some outstanding talent during my time at LiveScore and they have already done the same for The Pools. Due to both their partnership approach, and the outstanding level of the talent they source, we are delighted to work with them as a key strategic partner to deliver our executive talent.”

JJ Williams, Co-Founder of W3 Marketing Ltd and Devilfish Poker, confidently stated, “The growth of social poker and free-to-play models has been undeniable in recent years. We are witnessing a revitalization of interest in poker from a diverse range of digital natives eager to engage in community gameplay and the latest Web3 innovations—such as avatars, skins, traits, NFTs (non-fungible tokens), and digital ownership.

Our brand is uniquely positioned, enriched by its legacy in the online poker scene and its association with the late David A. ‘Devilfish’ Ulliott, a member of the WSOP Poker Hall of Fame.
