Betcris taps iGaming industry expert as new casino director
20 Jul 2022
Lebleu has been involved in the iGaming industry for over 25 years. He spent the last 12 in Europe, working in both the B2C and B2B segments. During that time, he worked for names like William Hill, where he spent four years, NetEnt and GiG. Most recently, Lebleu served as the Senior Sales Director for Skywind Group.
Now, he is moving back to Costa Rica, where he started his iGaming carrier in 1997. It was there where he spent most of his life before relocating to Spain to work in Gibraltar in 2009. Betcris is optimistic that his proven track record and strong commercial focus will prove to be significant assets as the company continues to grow.
Lucas said of joining Betcris, “I’m very excited about this opportunity; I’ve known Betcris since I started to work in Costa Rica a quarter of a century ago, and I’m pleased to have reached an agreement with Betcris. In my opinion is one of the most respected brands in Latin America, with a retail and online presence in the majority of the LatAm countries.
“I want to thank specifically JD, Fernando Garita, Gabriel Nuñez and Carlos Soto, but also Mauricio Delgado and the HR team who have been extra helpful to get me up to speed,” he added.
As the casino director, Lebleu will be responsible for the implementation of the operator’s casino strategy, including operation and promotion activities. He will also oversee tactical changes in operations and promotions to reach the casino revenue targets.
