Aristocrat appoints Sally Denby CFO

Aristocrat Leisure has announced that Sally Denby has been appointed chief financial officer of the company, effective immediately and subject to the receipt of necessary regulatory pre-approvals.

Denby was promoted to Aristocrat deputy chief financial officer in February 2022, after serving seven years in senior finance leadership roles in the company.

Prior to joining Aristocrat, she led finance teams at Nine MSN and GE, the latter across both Australian and European business units.

Aristocrat CEO and managing director Trevor Croker said: “I am thrilled to appoint Sally Denby as chief financial officer of Aristocrat and welcome her to our executive leadership team.

“Over her successful career at Aristocrat, Sally has proven to be an outstanding enterprise leader and a trusted finance partner. Sally’s cultural impact, deep engagement with our operating businesses and understanding of our obligations as an ASX listed company further add to her credentials.

“In particular, as deputy chief financial officer, Sally has worked effectively with myself and our leaders in supporting the execution of our growth strategy and ensuring seamless continuity post the departure of our previous CFO in April.

“A comprehensive global search identified Sally as the best candidate to step into the role at this exciting time in Aristocrat’s growth journey. I congratulate Sally on her appointment and look forward to her ongoing contribution to Aristocrat.”
