He will be based in QiH Group’s London, UK, office and will manage the company’s 17-strong marketing team.

That team is set to increase in numbers to 27 staff, with McCarthy looking to oversee growth in marketing channels and commercial relationships.

“It’s such a pleasure to join a company that has grown so thoroughly and organically in licensed markets,” McCarthy said.

“QiH Group is a big name in the igaming affiliate space, and I look forward to managing the continued growth in diversified sectors and locations.”

Jamie Walters, CEO of QiH Group, said: “QiH has moved from strength to strength recently, growing and adapting with the igaming markets in the UK, Europe and North America.
