William Hill owner evoke has appointed Janice Duncan as Group Finance Director while rumours around a potential takeover continue to swirl.
Duncan, who joins after leaving her role as Chief Financial Officer at Casumo, brings 13 years worth of experience in the industry to the LSE-listed business, including in roles at William Hill. 
She started her career in banking, holding various positions at National Australia Group before joining the Royal Bank of Scotland and later RBC Insurance, which is now Direct Line Group. 
Duncan then made the switch into the iGaming industry in 2013, spending nearly five years at Coral and then joining William Hill in 2018. 
After rising up the ranks to become the company’s Finance Director in 2019, she left at the end of 2020 to join Rank Interactive as Chief Financial Officer, meaning any of her work there predates evoke’s 2022 acquisition of Hills’ assets. 
Duncan spent two years at Rank Interactive before joining Casumo in 2023. 
“I’m delighted to share that I have joined evoke as Group Finance Director,” she said. 
“I want to express my gratitude to the team at Casumo. Over the last 3 years, I’ve had the opportunity to work alongside exceptional people, navigate complex challenges, and contribute to meaningful growth and transformation.
“I’m excited to join evoke at such an important time in its journey. The opportunity to work with talented teams, drive strategic initiatives, and help shape the next phase is one I am looking forward to with great enthusiasm.
“I am excited for what lies ahead and eager to contribute to the continued success of the business and our people.”
