Scientific Games appoints new chief financial officer

Scientific Games has appointed Nick Negro as the company’s new chief financial officer. Following an extensive nationwide search, Negro was appointed to the role upon the recent retirement of former CFO James Bunitsky who joined Scientific Games in 1981 and helped lead the company through a succession of business and financial transformations across four decades, including the sale of Scientific Games Lottery to Brookfield Business Partners in April 2022.

Negro is a results-driven finance professional with 20 years of progressive financial, strategic, operational management and leadership experience for global multi-billion-dollar organizations in the technology, logistics and manufacturing sectors. He has proven success developing and executing financial strategies at international companies, including CFO positions at Honeywell, Dover Corporation and Navistar.

Scientific Games CEO, Pat McHugh, said: “We are grateful for Jim Bunitsky’s outstanding financial leadership and excited to now add Nick to our Executive Leadership Team in the role of CFO. He has a thorough understanding of the complexity of international operations in a service-based business and broad knowledge of corporate structure, compliance and strategy. Guided by Nick’s financial expertise, we look forward to the next chapter of sound financial management of our global business.”
