About the company

Evoke PLC is a global leader in the sports betting and gaming industry, owning and operating some of the world’s most recognised and trusted brands. With a portfolio that includes William Hill, 888casino, 888sport, 888poker, and Mr Green, Evoke delivers premier entertainment experiences to millions of customers worldwide.

Role Overview

Currently working as a Senior Product Designer within the global design team at Evoke Holding (formerly 888 Group), one of the leading companies in the gambling industry. I collaborate daily with a global, multicultural team across the company’s international offices. My work spans three key products: William Hill (UK market), Mr Green (EU market), and 888 (serving both the EU and US markets). These brands are unified through a multi-brand, multi-language, and multi-region design system, using shared components and variants to ensure consistency, scalability, and seamless user experiences across platforms.

My role involves supporting the Core, CX, and Design System teams by driving initiatives that connect scalable design practices with business objectives through design-centric strategies. In addition, I’ve been actively involved in applying AI to enhance both user and employee experiences—developing AI-powered solutions to personalise promotional content from the user’s perspective, as well as designing internal tools that leverage AI to streamline and automate employee support processes.

Examples of areas I have worked on

  • AI-Driven Solutions

    Working with AI-driven solutions to personalise user journeys within the promotions area and to optimise internal workflows. This includes developing tools that enhance employee efficiency and leverage LLM technology to generate dynamic, context-aware copy at scale.

  • Payment

    One of my favourite aspects of working with major consultancies and embedded teams, especially within large banks, has been gaining a deep understanding of payment technologies and the business strategies driving them. At Evoke, I led the redesign of the payment section, which processes millions of pounds every weekend, ensuring user security and transparency. A key challenge was the high abandonment rate at checkout. My role focused on retaining users through completion and implementing design strategies to increase average checkout value, leveraging thoughtful design and tailored, context-sensitive suggestions.

  • Promotion

    With the primary objective of customer retention and acquisition, the promotions area is one of thee key division of the company and the main focal point as aqcsition. My role was to increase the conversion of new users by developing design strategies in collaboration with stakeholders, aimed at attracting more customers. By leveraging promotions and relevant context—such as major events of the week or month—the main strategy for this product area focused on utilising context and design to drive user acquisition.

  • Design System

    My role with the design team involved supporting the development of a multi-branding and multi-language system for the holding company. This included assisting with design analysis, mapping design elements across all the companies and brands within the group, and conducting design audits across the brands. This work enabled the creation of a consolidated and coded design system. My primary focus here is on supporting the design team with the core product.

  • Know Your Costumer

    With my extensive knowledge in the financial sector, one of the areas where I was able to dedicate was in user document verification—an essential area for the gambling industry. This involved verifying and validating documents for both new and existing users, thereby ensuring the company’s credibility on both sides and providing greater security for the user.

Some of these features are still under development, and due to NDA restrictions, the journeys and design screenshots cannot be shared publicly on this site.
They are available only through private presentations. As a senior product designer on these projects, my role involved leading the end-to-end creation and updates of these features, collaborating closely with engineers and business executives to ensure alignment with both technical requirements and strategic objectives.

Design and Company Restructuring

When I joined the company, William Hill had recently been acquired by 888 Holdings in a $2.2 billion USD deal. One of the primary challenges was ensuring consistency and scalability across the business. This included centralizing the holding company under a unified design system post-acquisition.

Collaborating with the design system team, I conducted extensive audits and analyzed user journeys across all three companies to identify and map their unique needs. This process provided comprehensive visibility into existing design elements and laid the foundation for constructing the new design system.

All materials were meticulously documented and tracked via Jira tickets, offering real-time visibility to executives and the whole design team—many new to the company. This approach ensured transparency throughout the process and helped establish design consistency across the organization.

Design Team Deliveries Wrapped

After the unification of the three companies, 2024 marked the first full year of integrated operations. This video, presented to the executives, highlights the Q2 achievements of the design team, showcasing their work under a unified design system.
