Hamburg, 03 March 2025. Andrea Behrendt will become Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of ZEAL Network SE, the market leader for online lotteries in Germany, on April 1, 2025. In this role, she succeeds Sebastian Bielski, who has informed the Supervisory Board of ZEAL Network SE that he wishes to leave the company to pursue new professional challenges. The Supervisory Board has decided to comply with this wish and to terminate his contract prematurely as of March 31, 2025. Portrait Pictures by Andrea Behrendt and Sebastian Bielski are available under this link. “We are delighted to welcome Andrea Behrendt as a member of the ZEAL Management Board. With her deep financial and long-standing industry expertise, she brings excellent qualifications to support ZEAL in the next phase of growth,” said Peter Steiner, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of ZEAL Network SE. “On behalf of the Supervisory Board, we would like to thank Sebastian Bielski for his exceptional commitment and his significant contribution to the positive development of the company.” “I would like to thank the Supervisory Board for the trust they have placed in me and look forward to the opportunity to help shape the future of ZEAL with my colleagues on the Management Board and the entire team,” explains Andrea Behrendt.
