Online gambling software supplier Playtech plans to hire additional 300 employees over the next eight months, as it prepares to launch several large-scale omni-channel projects in the UK and emerging markets

The supplier has seen its global headcount grow by more than 600, a 20% increase,  from January 2014 to March 2015, as a result of the company’s success and investment in Playtech ONE, the company’s omni-channel technology offering.

Currently, Playtech has a total of 4,000 workforce.

The company prepares to concentrate its resources on what it describes as “several significant, soon-to-be-announced, global government and non-government omni-channel contracts.”
