Dylan Holman Departs eToro for McLaren Racing

Dylan Holman has departed eToro to take up the role of Head of Primary Partner at the British racing team, McLaren Racing.

Announced on his LinkedIn page over the weekend, Holman leaves the position of Head of Global Sponsorships with the Israeli social trading and multi-asset broker after more than six years of service.

Prior to joining eToro, Holman worked for just under five years as an Account Manager at Fast Track. There, his duties included providing sports sponsorship and PR advice to accounts such as the car manufacturer, Land Rover.

Big Shoes to Fill

In his time at eToro, Holman led the company to secure sponsorship deals with a host of leading European football clubs as well deals in international rugby and UFC. Over the last couple of football seasons with FX and Crypto trading platforms dominating football sponsorship deals, eToro has been at the forefront of it all.

The company inked deals with English Premier League teams, Southampton, Aston Villa and Arsenal. Most recently, the online trading platform founded in 2007, renewed its sponsorship of the French football team, AS Monaco.

Under Holman's stewardship, eToro became a dominant force in Italian football, sponsoring no less than eight Italian football clubs.

McLaren Racing and FX Love-in to Continue?

With the appointment of Holman, the love-in between McLaren and the financial world will more than likely continue. FXPro signed a sponsorship deal with the Surrey-based racing team in 2018 and extended the agreement only recently.

Meanwhile, as well as the deal with FXPro, the British racing car company has also inked sponsorship deals with Goldman Sachs, OKX and Intercontinental Exchange.
