Lee Hutchinson, who founded Double Eleven, will be resigning as the CEO. Kimberley Turner and Mark South are set to take over as co-CEOs of the independent studio.
This leadership transition is part of an updated senior management plan following Hutchinson's shift to a broader strategic role as the chairman of Pneuma Group, the parent company of Double Eleven.
"I'm incredibly proud of what we’ve built and confident that under Kimberley and Mark’s leadership, Double Eleven will continue to thrive," Hutchinson stated.
Turner and South, in their previous roles as CFO/commercial director and COO, managed the studio's everyday operations and facilitated various strategic initiatives within the company.
As the new co-CEOs, they will guide the studio's plans for significant long-term growth.
Turner and South acknowledged that Hutchinson's leadership helped transform Double Eleven from a small-scale independent studio to a renowned global developer and publisher.
"We are honored to build on the legacy he created and excited to lead the company into its next phase," they expressed.
They highlighted this transition as a crucial step in their ongoing expansion, committed to being reliable partners for top-tier games and developers, whether through complete development, collaboration, or publishing.
"By continuing to support the talented people across the business who make it all possible," they added.
