Calling it the next step in its evolution and growth, Aristocrat has brought all of its land-based operations under a global CEO.
Mitchell Bowen has been appointed CEO of land based, responsible for all of Aristocrat’s regulated gaming business worldwide. At the same time, CFO Americas Hector Fernandez has been promoted to president of Aristocrat Americas, replacing Matt Wilson who has left the company and accepted another position elsewhere. Fernandez will report to Bowen.
Creating a single global land-based business “will facilitate thorough and coordinated delivery of transformation and growth projects across our regional teams, along with more integrated product and technology strategy and seamless execution,” Aristocrat Group CEO Trevor Croker said.
“Bringing together our land-based operations also positions us to more effectively serve an increasing number of global customers and sets the business up for its next phase of growth.’
Bowen has spent 15 years in senior roles in all of Aristocrat’s major regions, including the Americas, and has worked to turn around the business in Australia and New Zealand, Croker said.
