Grupo Codere has announced the appointment of Gonzaga Higuero as its new Group Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
The Spanish and LatAm gambling outfit has been leaderless since February, following the resignations of joint CEOs Alberto González del Solar and Alejandro Rodino.
Fresh to the gambling sector, Higuero joins Codere from the Health Transportation Group (HTG) – the company recognized as the “second largest health transport service provider in Europe”.
In a statement confirming the appointment, Codere described Higuero as an expert in corporate transformation projects, having led the refinancing and business turnaround of HTG, which was acquired by new investors in 2021.
