Macau-based casino developer, Melco Crown Entertainment, today announced the implementation of a new, streamlined management structure aimed at what it calls “enhancing organisational efficiency”.
A statement released by Melco said the new venture has been put forward to try and improve the integration of gaming and non-gaming operations.
To implement our new management structure, Mr. Ying Tat Chan, currently the Co-Chief Operating Officer, Gaming, has been appointed as the Company’s sole Chief Operating Officer, overseeing both gaming and non-gaming activities across City of Dreams, Altira Macau, and Mocha Clubs.
Co-Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Lawrence Ho, said: “We are encouraged in our belief that the new management structure will make us a more agile company, better positioned to move quickly in a dynamic market.
“Our new structure is targeted to unlock additional synergies between our gaming and non-gaming operations and to facilitate the delivery of our comprehensive, world-class customer service as efficiently as possible, ultimately for the benefit of the Company, our staff members, and our shareholders.
