Aristocrat appoints Bob Serr and Dafne Guisard
Aristocrat Leisure has announced two executive leadership appointments with Bob Serr appointed Chief Technology Officer, and Dafne Guisard appointed to the position of Chief Commercial Officer, EMEA.
Mr Serr has been appointed as Chief Technology Officer and will commence in February, subject to any regulatory approvals. Based in the United States, he brings deep expertise in AI, emerging technologies, and enterprise-scale innovation. He previously held senior leadership roles at Microsoft (Azure Communication Services & IC3), Amazon (where he worked on Alexa Skills Kit), and Double Down Interactive.
Ms Guisard joins Aristocrat in a newly created role to lead the company’s growth and expansion across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. Based in London, she brings more than 20 years of senior leadership experience across commercial growth, operations, and digital transformation in complex, regulated, multi-country environments.

She also spent nearly a decade at Anheuser Busch InBev in senior commercial and finance roles, including major acquisitions and integrations. Earlier in her career, she held senior roles at Goldman Sachs and Roland Berger.
In this newly created position, Ms Guisard will be responsible for driving the execution of Aristocrat’s EMEA expansion strategy and strengthening Aristocrat’s business across the region. She will begin in February, subject to any regulatory approvals. Both Ms Guisard and Mr Serr will report directly to Aristocrat Group CEO & Managing Director, Trevor Croker, and will join the Executive Steering Committee. These appointments are subject to the receipt of any necessary regulatory approvals.
