The Star Entertainment Group has announced the appointment of a new Group Chief Financial Officer, Frank Krile.
According to a Tuesday announcement, Krile will ‘commence with The Star immediately’, with current Interim Group CFO Neale O’Connell to continue in his role until March 28th, 2025.
O’Connell is to ‘assist in an orderly transition to Frank Krile over the coming months’.
Krile joins the Australian gaming operator after over 18 years with multinational construction and real estate group Lendlease. At the firm Krile served most recently as Group Chief Risk Officer, having previously held roles as Acting Group Chief Financial Officer and Group Deputy Chief Financial Officer.
Krile also served as an Associate Director of the ABN AMRO Bank and as a Manager with PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PwC).
The move follows a raft of executive changes at The Star, amongst its ongoing financial and regulatory difficulties as it aims to prove it is worth of maintaining its casino licenses.
