Tabcorp Holdings has appointed Larry Mullin as the chief executive for the Australian company’s casinos division. Mr. Mullin, 46, replaces Walter Bugno, who resigned from the executive position earlier this month to pursue a business opportunity in London.
Mr. Mullin will lead the company’s four casino properties -- Star City, Conrad Jupiters, Conrad Treasury and Jupiters Townsville.
With 20 years in the casino industry, Mr. Mullin served as the president and chief operating officer at Borgata Hotel and Spa, a joint venture between Boyd Gaming Corporation and MGM Mirage.
“He has a real passion for entertainment and for the delivery of great customer service, having created the leading casino in Atlantic City -- a market that has many parallels to Australia,” said Elmer Funke Kupper, Tabcorp’s chief executive, in a prepared statement. “We are delighted to have someone of Larry’s caliber join our business and help shape our gambling entertainment offer.”
