SeaWorld Entertainment Inc.
is shuffling its executives, moving Chief Financial Officer Chelle Adams, who took that job less than a year ago, to the newly created role of chief transformation officer.
Ms. Adams will work to streamline organizational processes and oversee business development and growth activities, the company said. SeaWorld named Jim Forrester, who joined the company in 2019, to the role of interim finance chief and treasurer.
Mr. Forrester most recently served as vice president of finance for SeaWorld’s Orlando, Fla., parks and has held theme-park finance roles at
Walt Disney Co.
and Hershey Entertainment & Resorts.
Chief Executive
Marc Swanson
said the shakeup “will help us better execute our plans and initiatives, capitalize on opportunities, and deliver improved operational and financial results.”
Additionally, the company named Kyle Miller, who has served as the park president for SeaWorld Orlando, Discovery Cove and Aquatica Orlando since 2019, to the post of co-chief parks operations officer. Mr. Miller will oversee all Florida parks, alongside another co-chief parks operations officer, Byron Surrett, who will oversee all non-Florida parks.
The company also named three new park presidents, and promoted Shekufeh Boyle to the role of chief accounting officer. Ms. Boyle most recently served as the company’s corporate controller and vice president of accounting.
