Adrian Marsh will not join William Hill as group chief financial officer. Last month Marsh revealed he would remain in the same executive position with his current employer, international packaging business DS Smith.
Marsh planned to join the U.K.-based sportsbook operator during the first quarter. He cited the “current unprecedented circumstances” as his reason for staying put.
William Hill Chairman Roger Devlin said, “Whilst we note the reasons for Adrian’s decision, William Hill is focused on taking the necessary steps required in these unprecedented times to protect the interests of its stakeholders. We will provide an update in due course.”
According to SBC News, Ruth Prior will continue to serve as William Hill’s group financial lead until a new prospect is identified.
