With nearly two decades of experience in the eGaming industry, Scott’s expertise spans multiple landscapes and business types.

Scott departed the business in 2018 to one the largest Isle of Man GSC licence holders facing Asian Markets. Here, Scott engineered a compliance programme that not only met and exceeded regulatory requirements but was also commercially viable and allowed for significant year-on-year growth.

Scott Young added: “I am thrilled to re the Amber Gaming family at the most pivotal time. While familiar, Amber Gaming has grown significantly since my time with them. This has brought new faces, novel concepts and fresh challenges, all of which I look forward to meeting over the coming months."
