About William Hill

Customers rely on William Hill to give them high-quality gaming and betting, knowing that our expertise and friendly service consistently deliver an unrivalled experience.

Online, on the high street, on the phone and on the move

William Hill is the UK's leading bookmaker and one of the most recognised and trusted brands in the gambling industry, providing gaming and betting services across multiple channels: online, on the high street, on the phone and on the move. We have been listed on the London Stock Exchange (WMH.L) since 2002 and employ over 15,000 people in the UK, Gibraltar, Israel and Bulgaria.

Our aim is to give our customers what they want, when they want it, where they want it. Well-known for our 75-year sports-betting heritage, we also offer a full range of gaming products. We are continuously evolving our product range to meet the changing demands of a wide and diverse customer base looking for an exciting and entertaining gambling experience.

Strategy

We focus on continuing to create value by drawing on our core capabilities and strengths. Our strategic priorities are centred around:

  • UK Retail: maintaining market-leading position
    We are the UK's leading high-street bookmaker with approximately 25% of LBOs in the UK. Our goal with Retail is to drive top-line growth through strong customer service, careful estate management and product range development, whist controlling costs to maximise profitability. We aim to maintain our position as the UK's number one Retail player through organic growth by increasing the estate on a net basis by 1-2% a year.
  • Online growth: top three in selected market
    Our international expansion strategy is led by William Hill Online. We aim to grow our UK market share and to expand into new territories, particularly in Europe, using our strong brand name, sports-betting knowledge, market-leading gaming products and marketing expertise. We are concentrating our investment on a small number of priority countries where we aim to achieve a market-leading position and focusing on regulated markets that offer more certain opportunities.
  • Betting and gaming: Sports-betting-led with a full gaming proposition
    We are well recognised for our sports-betting expertise. We will continue to expand our sports-betting product range and to offer attractive pricing, as well as to provide a full range of gaming products to meet customers' demands for an exciting gambling experience.
  • New technologies: extending our service to new platforms and devices
    We aim to be at the forefront of technology and extending our service to new platforms and devices. In Retail, we combine leading-edge hardware with competitive games in our offering of gaming machines. This is complemented on the sports-betting side with technology such as self-service betting terminals which give customers access to the wide array of betting opportunities. In Online, we are extending into new markets such as financial betting and a wide range of in-play betting. We are also using technological developments in mobile betting  to enable customers to access our products in a fast, efficient and tailored way.
  • Our people: market-leading customer service and best-in-breed management team
    Service is a critical factor in achieving customer satisfaction. We will continue to provide best-in-class customer service by understanding customers' changing needs and by using the latest innovations to reach more customers in a more effective way. We continue to refresh the management team to ensure we have the right mix of ideas and experience.
