UK – Realistic recruits Robert Lee from IGT

By Phil - 11 January 2016

Realistic Games has moved to strengthen its commercial team with the appointment of Robert Lee.

The former Gala Coral and Ladbrokes employee will work alongside the Berkshire-based company’s commercial director Andy Harris.

His recruitment from fellow supplier IGT, where he managed their bingo product, will help Realistic ahead of next month’s ICE Totally Gaming exhibition.

Mr. Harris, who Mr. Lee worked with when he was Director of Gaming at Ladbrokes, said: “Robert has an excellent and broad product knowledge and totally understands client management having worked as an operator and supplier across a wide range of products, in both land-based and online environments.

“I’ve no doubt he’ll add great value to our expanding team and that our existing clients and those taking our content and services in the future will benefit from his industry experience.”

Realistic’s games are now a staple of some of the world’s leading operators and content aggregators, including bet365, BetVictor, Ladbrokes, Gala Coral, Boylesports, Stan James, NYX, Paddy Power, Bede, and Gaming Realms.

They recently added Rank Interactive as a customer after agreeing a deal to supply its Grosvenor Casinos and Mecca Bingo sites with the full suite of slots and table games.
