The newly re-branded The Stars Group (formerly Amaya Inc.) hosted the Prime Minister of Malta, The Honourable Joseph Muscat Friday when he opened the group’s new Spinola Bay offices, now home to employees from over 30 nations.
The Stars Group’s current workforce in Malta stands at around 270 staff, having grown from just a handful of employees in 2012, and the new office space can accommodate significantly more in anticipation of future growth.
Staff work across a variety of departments servicing Stars brands, including business development, marketing, human resources and IT, and the company says it is still recruiting for some 30 more employees.
The new office features a games room, a large terraced area, and a creative space for brainstorming. The building complex is due for full completion by the end of the year and will see a host of new communal facilities available for staff, including a food court, gym, supermarket and children’s crèche.
Prime Minister Muscat said:
“The last decade has seen Malta emerge as a global igaming destination. It’s a great honour to host a global brand such as The Stars Group, which has had stellar success. The Stars Group employs Maltese residents and expats, and the further growth of the company with the new office will complement economic growth here in Malta. Malta is a prime jurisdiction for igaming and we will continue to be vigilant with growing trends, provide education to fit, and keep in close contact with stakeholders.”
Rafi Ashkenazi, CEO of The Stars Group, said: “Malta provided a warm welcome to us in 2012 and we’re proud to renew our commitment as we look to welcome new recruits into The Stars Group family here in Malta.”
