The leadership at Konami Gaming has been bolstered by three appointments to the firm’s upper management and two at senior director level. The company has promoted Shanna Grimes to VP for Human Resources; Gary Snobel to VP for Corporate Planning and IT Administration; and William Wadleigh to Senior Director for Game Development.

“These new appointments are a reflection of Konami’s strong momentum within the [casino] business and reliable long-term position in the gaming industry,” commented Konami Gaming President and CEO, Steve Sutherland.

“Konami’s senior management is driven by a commitment to excellence, accountability and innovation, values which are shared by each of these key members of leadership,” he added.

Konami Gaming said Ms Grimes had headed its human resources department for two years. Mr Snobel had worked for the company for more than a decade, working on global corporate planning. Mr Wadleigh had contributed to strategic innovation of products, the company stated.

In two other appointments announced this week, Konami Gaming promoted Fernando Rivera to global field service senior director and David Schwartz to customer experience senior director.
