He had assumed the role on a temporary basis in June.<\/p>\n<p>Matt Bekier resigned from his position as CEO and Managing Director in late March following the release of findings from a New South Wales investigation into the operations of Star Entertainment Group. John O&#8217;Neill, who succeeded Bekier, also resigned after less than two months as Executive Chairman. <\/p>\n<p>During Hogg&#8217;s temporary leadership, Ben Heap was named as the interim head of the organization.

Earlier this month, the company was deemed ineligible to maintain a license in Queensland following an investigation into its operations.<\/p>\n<p>The review, initiated in June, delved into various aspects and uncovered a number of systematic shortcomings.<\/p>\n<p>The findings largely correspond with those revealed in Adam Bell SC&#8217;s report on Star&#8217;s activities in New South Wales, which also concluded that the operator was unfit to hold a license in that state.<\/p>\n<p>Sign up for the iGaming newsletter. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Australian Star Entertainment Group has revealed that Robbie Cooke will step into the role of Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director on October 17.
