Daniel O’Donoghue has announced that he accepted a role at Aristocrat Interactive as the company’s new chief operating officer.
“I am very excited to be on this ambitious team as we seek to execute on our strategy and deliver on the growth potential of the business,” said O’Donoghue in a LinkedIn post. “Looking forward to meeting the team and working together to continue delivering innovative online real money gaming products, platforms, and solutions for our customers and partners.”
O’Donoghue joins Aristocrat Interactive after spending nearly five years at Light & Wonder as its iGaming COO. Before entering the gaming space, he spent time in the business consulting sector as a director with stops at Alvarez & Marsal and Accenture.
O’Donoghue joins Aristocrat Interactive CEO Dylan Slaney as a former Light & Wonder executive. Slaney was hired in September 2025 to lead Aristocrat’s online casino business after former iGaming CEO Moti Malul decided to relinquish his role at the company.
Aristocrat Interactive launched in 2024 as a new business structure for Aristocrat. The segment allowed Aristocrat to bring its Anaxi and NeoGames brands under one roof.
