According to the news report on the 888 Holdings website, he will take on the role in February 2024.

Wilkins has over 17 years of experience as a CFO. Notably, he has worked at prominent companies in the gambling industry, such as Superbet.

Aristocrat Appoints Superna Kalle as the Company’s Chief Strategy and Content Officer
Aristocrat Leisure has enlisted the talents of Superna Kalle, who will now become the Aussie firm’s chief strategy and content officer. She will take on the role starting on 9 of October this year.
She has 16 years of experience at Sony Pictures Entertainment, a company that works closely with Playtech – the latest development is the new Jumanji live casino show. In a twist to that story, Aristocrat was set to purchase Playtech just a few years ago. However, that deal eventually went through. On top of her experience with Sony Pictures, Superna Kalle was also the president of Starz International, a vast company spanning its services across over 60 countries.
CEO Trevor Croker extended a warm reception to Kalle saying that he believes she will play an instrumental role in steering the company’s strategic expansion in the global gambling sphere.
