Svenska Spel has appointed Amäni Radwan as its new CFO, moving on from her Head of Group Finance role at the Swedish gambling company.
Radwan, who will be part of the group management team and report directly to CEO Anna Johnson, will take up her new position in July 2025.
Johnson, who was named CEO in December 2023, said: “I am very pleased to welcome Amäni Radwan to her new role and to the Group Management.
“She is a valued leader within Svenska Spel and, in addition to solid financial expertise, also has business focus and strategic understanding. Amäni will also be able to contribute valuable experience in business development and change management.”
Having been at the firm since 2021, Rawdan has ‘deep insight’ into the group’s strategy, corporate culture and the transformation that was implemented during the previous year.
Her previous experience includes ten years within the ICA Group, where in the role of Chief Controller she worked on, for example, developing working methods and governance, agile transformation and streamlining operations.
“I am very proud of the trust and happy to have the opportunity to drive change together with the rest of the group management with a focus on our business,” noted the new CFO, who now takes over from Eva Stoppel.
After six years as CFO of Svenska Spel, Stoppel has decided to continue to engage in board assignments in various operations to a greater extent.
Rawdan added: “Svenska Spel is a company that does a lot of good for society and we are at an exciting stage with a new strategy in place.
“I look forward to continuing to work to achieve our goals of having the most satisfied customers in the gaming market, ensuring that all customers play healthily with us and for sustainable growth.”
In further company news, Svenska Spel has just awarded its marketing PR account to Jung, the Stockholm agency tasked with redeveloping the PR strategy for Sweden’s national lottery and instant win Tur games.
The appointment followed a procurement tender initiated on 14 February, during which Svenska Spel reviewed pitches from the country’s leading PR agencies.
