Andrea, HR
At the University of Malta, I studied Tourism and Management Studies; and on graduation, I joined Air Malta as a Cabin Crew for the summer, before going full-time. But even during my degree, I had always been interested in HR, and that led me to doing an MSc in HR & Training at the University of Leicester. Not long after, I joined Konnekt as a recruitment specialist, before venturing into iGaming as People and Culture Manager.
iGaming ticked all my boxes and to be honest have exceeded my expectations. It’s international, fast-paced, dynamic, tech, driven and fun. It’s a great environment to help you grow your career.
The biggest misconception is that we don’t do much work and have a laid back attitude – which is totally not the case. From the outside, you might perceive the industry as having great benefits and fun activities, but I can assure you there is a very good and healthy balance – which keeps you productive and engaged.
I am proud of how much our HR Team has developed over the past two years and being part of the team that set up the Hero Gaming Foundation (HGF) – which is all about helping to make Hero Gaming a socially accountable and responsible operator. The HGF has been set up to contribute towards a greater good, ensuring a level of sustainability in causes which benefit the community and the environment.
