NOVOMATIC Americas has appointed Juergen Keller as the new Managing Director, as announced by the company.

Keller will partner with Managing Director Sabine Stoppel to steer the company towards commercial growth, operational excellence, strategic initiatives, and expansion efforts across North America and the Caribbean. He takes over from Jakob Rothwangl, who will be stepping into a larger leadership role within the NOVOMATIC Group, dedicated to fostering the company’s strategic development and market growth in Germany.

This leadership transition is a significant step in NOVOMATIC’s long-term growth plan, enhancing its executive team.

Having joined NOVOMATIC Americas about a year ago as the Vice President of Finance and Treasurer, Keller has significantly contributed to the improvement of the company’s financial functions, business strategy, and organizational performance, while aiding its ongoing expansion within the Americas.

Prior to joining NOVOMATIC Americas, Keller held the position of Managing Director at TEST-FUCHS North America, where he was responsible for developing customized testing solutions for civil and military aerospace industries. Before that, he served as Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of BORBET Alabama Inc., where he directed financial, operational, and strategic efforts for the renowned premium alloy wheel manufacturer.

“Juergen has made an incredible impact in a brief time,” stated Stoppel. “His unique blend of global leadership experience, financial acumen, and operational proficiency makes him a valuable addition to our executive team.”

She also expressed confidence that his appointment will enhance the company’s trajectory for growth while continuing to deliver value to our customers and partners.

“It is a privilege to assume the role of Managing Director at NOVOMATIC Americas,” Keller remarked. “I am eager to collaborate with Sabine and our outstanding team as we work to strengthen customer relationships, foster innovation, and build upon the strong foundation of the company for future growth.”
