Exclusive: Flutter shuts Sky Bet Malta HQ less than one year after relocation

The closure will consolidate Sky Bet operations in Gibraltar alongside Sky Gaming under the leadership of newly appointed SBG managing director Neil Banbury Flutter Entertainment will close Sky Bet’s Malta operation less than 12 months after relocating its commercial headquarters from the UK, NEXT.io can exclusively reveal. As a result, Sky Bet roles currently based on the island are expected to be transferred to Gibraltar, where sister brand Sky Gaming is already headquartered. The decision marks a reversal of a high-profile relocation undertaken in November 2025, which was expected to save Flutter tens of millions of pounds annually.
