The Bahamas’ flagship resort has named Audrey Oswell as its new president and managing director, the property announced.

Oswell had been serving as the resort’s Chief Operating Officer since 2016, having previously held the title of chief gaming officer at Atlantis from 2011 to 2013.

She succeeds Howard Karawan in the role.

We look forward to sharing the ongoing success of Atlantis across the highest levels of guest service, experience and industry-leading innovation.”
