Enjoy S.A., one of the largest Latin American gaming and hospitality companies, has appointed Andrea Wolleter Eyheramendy as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) on July 1, 2025. The appointment signifies a significant change in leadership for the company as it continues to navigate through a rapidly evolving gaming landscape in the region.
The decision was made in an official announcement to the Chilean Financial Market Commission (Comisión para el Mercado Financiero – CMF) following a regular session of the company’s Board of Directors, held on May 26. During the meeting, the Board formally accepted Carolina Gálvez Fuentes’ resignation from the position of CEO, effective as of January 1, 2025. The company expressed its sincerest appreciation to Gálvez for her service, praising her “commitment, professionalism, and valuable contributions” since assuming office.
Process of Leadership Transition
In order to maintain continuity, the Board appointed Eliecer Utreras Sepúlveda as interim CEO in June. Utreras is Enjoy’s Deputy Manager of Consolidation and Reporting and shall be the acting representative from June 1 until June 30, 2025. Temporary leadership by him shall ensure seamless continuity, as Wolleter is to take over in full.
Meanwhile, Andrea Wolleter also quit as a member of Enjoy’s Board of Directors, which became effective on June 30, 2025. The move was done so that she could transition to the executive role without causing any conflict of interest issues.
Andrea Wolleter’s Background
Andrea Wolleter brings immense experience in both the private and public sectors, with extensive professional experience in tourism, business development, and strategic management. She is a commercial engineer by profession and has held numerous key roles in Chile’s tourism and economic development sectors.
Before that, Wolleter served as the National Director of SERNATUR (Servicio Nacional de Turismo), or the national tourism board of the country. There, she played an integral role in developing national tourism plans and international relations. She was also Executive Vice President of FEDETUR (Federación de Empresas de Turismo de Chile), where she fostered the development and modernization of the tourism industry in Chile.
Her board experience encompasses involvement in other private and public sector organizations, enhancing her governance, policy development, and stakeholder experience. Her cross-disciplinary background will likely bring fresh ideas and strategic direction into Enjoy’s operations at a time of shifting in the market.
A Strategic Appointment In the Face Of Industry Changes
Wolleter’s entry is at a turning point for Enjoy, since the gaming and entertainment industry in Latin America is confronted with radical change. Regulation changes, technological advancements, and shifts in consumer behavior are pushing businesses to rethink their operations and move to more agile and consumer-oriented models.
Hiring a CEO with extensive tourism and public-private partnership experience by Enjoy signals its intention to strengthen its market standing and search for synergies between industries. Wolleter’s capacity to establish stakeholder relationships and implement national-scale programs will be of benefit as Enjoy expands its operations and transforms the gaming experience in the market.
Gratitude towards the Outgoing CEO
Carolina Gálvez resigns after a brief but productive time, having been at the helm of Enjoy during the first few months of 2025. She presided during a time of emphasis on operational stability and internal transformation. The Board acknowledged her presence and was thankful for her professionalism and dedication to the strategic goals of the company.
Looking Ahead
With Andrea Wolleter starting in July, the company will be starting a new era of sustainable development, innovation, and integration in the region. Her hiring is a result not only of her track record but also of Enjoy’s evolving vision and ambitions for the future.
The transformation is indicative of the company’s embracing of adaptive leadership and accepting change as an overarching value. Having a seasoned executive such as Wolleter at the reins, Enjoy is poised to enhance leadership in the gaming and hospitality industries in Latin America.
