University Games promotes two as it looks to continue growth

Company promotes Mark Jones to sales director, while Gemma Lewington becomes marketing director.

Games and puzzles specialist, University Games is looking to continue the growth it enjoyed in 2020 into this year, confirming promotions for two members of its senior management team.

Mark Jones – who joined the company in 2018 – has been promoted to sales director, while Gemma Lewington – who was appointed in 2019 – is to become marketing director.

The directorships come after a successful 2020 for University Games which saw the substantial growth for the company with the acquisition of The Lagoon Group in June.

Mark and Gemma have both played significant roles in the integration of the brand into the core business.

“We have seen great development and growth within this business over the last five years, with the coming together of University Games and Paul Lamond Games and more recently the acquisition of The Lagoon Group – and with this unprecedented growth and the changes we are all faced with currently, it has never been more important to have the right people alongside me on the management team,” commented Richard Wells, md of University Games.

“The hard work, dedication, initiative and support shown by both Mark and Gemma from the day they both joined University Games has been invaluable and hugely appreciated. I am delighted that they have been rewarded with these well-deserved directorships and I look forward to seeing the further advances that this management team can achieve together.”
