Australian gaming operator The Star Entertainment Group Limited has announced the regulatory approval of two key leadership positions within the company.

On March 22nd, 2024, The Star appointed Neale O’Connell as the Interim Group Chief Financial Officer, with this appointment having now received all necessary regulatory approvals.

O’Connell will step into the CFO role on an interim basis as the company conducts a search for a permanent replacement, with The Star noting he ‘brings extensive experience in the gaming and hospitality industry’, having previously served in senior finance roles at several major casino operators.

“Neale’s deep expertise will be invaluable as we navigate the challenges and opportunities ahead,” said The Star’s Managing Director. “We are confident he will provide steady financial leadership during this transition period.”

This comes as the group recently announced the appointment of a new group CEO and Managing Director, Steve McCann.
