Anderson will step down from his present position as Head of Esports to take a more significant leadership position within FaZe Clan. Nonetheless, he will continue to manage the organization’s esports sector in his new role as president while working on the other parts of the business.
After this change, Zach Katz, who joined FaZe Clan in May 2022, resigned.
Anderson joined FaZe Clan in 2016 and is in charge of growing its esports section. Nowadays, FaZe Clan participates in 13 different games, such as Call of Duty, Counter-Strike, and Apex Legends.
FaZe Clan announced a financial loss of $14.04 million for the first quarter of 2023, which ended on March 31st, prompting the change in staff. The organization recorded a net loss as well as declining revenues and profits for the same time frame.
The second personnel move in recent months is the selection of a new FaZe Clan president. After serving for two years as the Director of Brand & Creative Strategy, the company promoted Matt “BK” Augustin to Vice President of Brand and Creative Strategy in March.
Lee Trink, CEO of FaZe Holdings spoke about the changes in FaZe Clan:
Erik has deep roots at FaZe Clan and has been a critical leader throughout the past several years with a proven track record of successfully growing and developing talent. I’m thrilled for him to further leverage his knowledge and understanding of the FaZe Clan brand to additional verticals across the organization.
