Corcoran said it’s time to move on, perhaps to unrelated fields. The industry veteran hasn’t made up his mind yet about what his next move will be, but said it may involve the consideration of “different sectors and even different geographies” before taking on any new role.
Corcoran is optimistic about the future of Paddy Power Betfair under the leadership of the newly-appointed CEO Peter Jackson.
“I am really confident in the prospects for our group,” Corcoran commented. “They now have a really bright, high-energy guy with experience of regulated international markets to take over. This is a good time to hand over the reins.”
