Genting’s Resorts World Las Vegas has continued its executive overhaul with the appointment of Las Vegas industry veteran Carlos Castro as Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

According to information released overnight, Castro will be tasked with leading the resort’s financial strategy, operational execution and long-term growth initiatives. Specifically he will oversee strategic planning and direction, investment activities and operational efficiencies, ensuring the resort remains competitive in the industry, RWLV said in a statement. Focusing on long-term growth, he will also collaborate with the leadership team to expand offerings, enhance guest experiences and solidify the resort’s standing as a leader in luxury and entertainment.

“Carlos is joining Resorts World Las Vegas at a pivotal time, as we continue to invest in the future of this property and solidify our place as a top-tier destination,” said RWLV Chairman, Jim Murren.

“His depth of experience in financial leadership and operations will be instrumental as we execute our strategic vision and drive long-term success. We are confident in his ability to help shape the next phase of growth for Resorts World Las Vegas.”

According to RWLV, Castro has extensive experience in hospitality finance and operations, having held senior leadership positions at Hilton Hotels Corporation, Caesars Entertainment and MGM Resorts International.

As SVP and CFO at Aria Resort and Casino, he led the property to record profitability through innovative operational initiatives, sound capital investments and effective cost management, the company explained, adding that his expertise in managing large-scale resort operations and financial growth strategies positions him well to guide RWLV into its next phase.

“Resorts World Las Vegas is an incredible property and I am honored to take on this role,” Castro said. “I look forward to working with our team to drive financial excellence, enhance our guest experience, and support the continued success of this extraordinary property.”

The appointment of Castro continues a complete overhaul of the RWLV team following recent regulatory scandals, with former MGM Resorts CEO Jim Murren having joined the newly formed Board of Directors as Chairman in December alongside former NGCB chair A.G. Burnett, former MGM and Caesars HR executive Michelle DiTondo, and Genting Bhd’s current President, COO and Executive Director Kong Han Tan as new directors.

Former Nevada Governor Brian Sandoval was also appointed to the Board of Directors earlier this month.

Alex Dixon, previously CEO at Q Casino & Resort and Dubuque Racing Association, was recently named CEO.
