Park Hotels & Resorts appoints Sean Dell’Orto as chief operating officer. Dell’Orto will also continue to serve as executive vice president, chief financial officer and treasurer, roles he has held since the company’s spin from Hilton Worldwide Holdings, Inc. in 2017.
As COO, he will have additional oversight and responsibility for day-to-day execution, and coordinating alignment, of the company’s internal operations with its strategy and business plans. The executive leadership team will continue to report to Park’s Chairman and CEO Thomas J. Baltimore, Jr.
“Sean is an exceptional leader with a proven track record of success,” Baltimore said in a statement. “As chief financial officer, his disciplined approach to managing Park’s balance sheet has been instrumental in our ability to navigate dynamic as well as challenging market conditions. Sean has strengthened our financial position, built a highly capable team, and, through prudent capital decisions and a focus on financial flexibility, provided the company with the optionality to execute our strategic objectives. I look forward to continuing to work with Sean over many years to come as we advance Park’s long-term success.”
