Ladbrokes announces acting CFO to cover ahead of Coral merger

Ladbrokes has appointed Richard Snow as acting chief financial officer.

The FTSE 250 company announced in September that Ian Bull who currently holds the post, will leave the company in February.

Snow, who is director of investor relations, will hold the post until the proposed merger with Coral completes next year following clearance by the CMA.

At that point, Paul Bowtell will become Ladbrokes Coral's CFO and a director of the company as previously announced.
