Technology-focused platform provider, The Mill Adventure (TMA), has appointed Cristina Grigore as its new Chief of Staff. The move is set to help maintain the company’s high-growth momentum and fast-paced environment where cross-functional alignment is key.
A business and people leader with over 15 years of experience in dynamic technology environments, combining strategic leadership with a deep commitment to sustainable growth, Grigore has served in several people leadership roles in the iGaming and technology spaces.
In her new role as Chief of Staff, Grigore will play a key role in driving TMA’s strategic vision and supporting its next phase of growth. Having spent the last four years at the iGaming platform provider, she has been instrumental in cultivating a culture of collaboration, mastery and ambition, values that continue to shape the company’s approach to iGaming technology.
TMA’s appointment of a Chief of Staff, serving as a central enabler for the executive team, and acting at the intersection of strategy, operations and execution, is aimed at helping the company scale efficiently, facilitating decision-making and ensuring strategic initiatives move forward with clarity and speed.
Grigore’s promotion follows two other recent senior appointments at TMA, with Gerardo Prieto joining as Chief Information Security Officer and Bjørnar Heggernes as Chief Commercial Officer, further strengthening the company’s leadership team as it expands its regulatory footprint worldwide.
TMA is a Malta-based iGaming platform provider that places a strong focus on technical expertise, full compliance in regulated markets and a partnership-led approach to success. The company’s groundbreaking innovations include SmartLobbies, a fully automated casino lobby management system powered by AI, and Betpool. This social feature allows users to pool funds for a shared iGaming experience across casino, live casino and sportsbook.
Cristina Grigore, Chief of Staff at The Mill Adventure, said:
“With this appointment, TMA is reaffirming its stance as a career building organisation: a company that enables people to grow in accordance with their ambitions.
“I couldn’t be more grateful for the opportunity to step into the space where strategy is built. I welcome the challenge of making direct impact on the business direction and inherently, the future of an inspiring company like The Mill Adventure.”
Dario Arruda, Co-founder and CEO at The Mill Adventure, said:
“Cristina has been a driving force behind our culture, one that values authenticity, collaboration and curiosity as much as it does innovation and performance.
“Her strategic acumen and deep understanding of organisational dynamics have been instrumental in helping The Mill Adventure evolve from a startup platform company into a cohesive, high-performing organisation. As Chief of Staff, Cristina will play a pivotal role in steering our next phase of growth, fostering alignment and turning complexity into opportunity.”
