Bragg Gaming names new chief human resources officer

Bragg Gaming has appointed former Sportradar executive Simon Dudnjik as chief human resources officer (CHRO).

Joining the company’s senior executive team, Dudnjik brings over a decade of people management experience to the role after spending over 12 years in senior roles at Sportradar, most recently as vice president of people partnering.

At Bragg, Dudnjik will be focused on managing and expanding the supplier’s growing workforce across multiple locations including in Ljubljana, Slovenia, where he will be based, as well as overseeing people functions at the company’s offices in Las Vegas, Reno, London, Malta, Toronto and Chennai.

“As well as staying at the cutting edge of iGaming technology with our multi award-winning player account management (PAM), casino content aggregation and Fuze promotional tools, in recent years we have also ramped up our production of exclusive, high-quality online casino games,” said Bragg CEO Matevž Mazij. “At the same time the regulated iGaming world is getting bigger, and we are supporting our customers in more and more territories around the world.

“As we grow it is essential that we continue to attract the right talent in all of our offices, and that we continue to build on our strong company culture. With his many years of experience building motivated, successful teams in the international iGaming technology sector, I am delighted to now welcome Simon into the senior leadership team at Bragg to help us meet and exceed our ambitious growth targets.”

Commenting on his new role, Dudnjik said: “I have long been aware of Bragg - formerly known as Oryx Gaming here in Slovenia - and its reputation as a tier 1 technology employer in the region, so I am honored to now be joining the team as CHRO.

“In the last 12 months, the company has opened new offices in Las Vegas and Malta, and we also continue to expand in Ljubljana and in our other locations to meet the demand of this rapidly expanding business. We have great foundations to build on at Bragg and I can’t wait to get started.”
