Beta previously handled the business, having been appointed in July 2009, and launched a successful campaign starring popular comedienne Barbara Windsor.
 
Michael Saunders, the managing director of Jackpotjoy, said: "We have been tremendously impressed with Isobel's creativity and its shared ambition for the brand."
