Paddy Power's new CEO, Andy McCue, has announced a new management line-up that includes Johnny Hartnett, who has been appointed 'managing director, Paddy Power online' and Christian Woolfenden has been appointed 'managing director, retail (UK & Ireland)'.

Woolfenden replaces McCue following his promotion as Chief Operating Officer.

Peter O'Donovan has been named the company’s new chief product officer.  His role will include heading up the technology and product development departments.

"These appointments reflect a strategic emphasis on customer and product. I am delighted to be filling these positions with high calibre individuals with a proven track record of success in the Group," said Mr McCue.

The company, known for its over-the-top promotional hijinks, is Ireland's largest bookmaker and the third largest in the United Kingdom.
