D’Arrigo has over 30 years of experience in the gambling industry, having previously held roles at Las Vegas Sands and Lady Luck Gaming Corporation (acquired by the now-defunct Isle of Capri Casinos in 2000), before holding five different roles at MGM Resorts over a 23-year period.
On joining San Manuel, D’Arrigo commented: “I am extremely honoured and humbled to be joining the San Manuel enterprise. The tribe has achieved much success while also assembling a top-notch leadership team under Laurens’ direction. I look forward to working alongside such experienced colleagues and further positioning the enterprise for long-term sustainable growth.”
During his tenure at MGM Resorts, D’Arrigo joined as Corporate Finance Manager, before working his way up the ranks, with titles including Director of Corporate Finance, Vice President Finance, Senior Vice President Finance and EVP & CFO.
It was during his most recent role at the company that he oversaw the financial aspects of acquiring Mirage Resorts and Mandalay Resort Group.
In February 2019, D’Arrigo opted to take voluntary redundancy at MGM Resorts, during a cost-cutting exercise announced by the company.
He continued to work for the company in an advisory role, before joining Gambling.com Group as a Non-Executive Director and Board Member.
Laurens Vosloo, CEO, San Manuel, said: “As Chief Financial Officer, Dan will play a critical role in leading the tribe’s fiscal strategy, growth and development. One of Dan’s greatest strengths is his credibility with the investment community and capital markets.
“We are very pleased Dan is joining our team, at a time when the tribe is experiencing tremendous growth and has such great potential for new opportunities.”
