President of P&O Cruises Australia Sture Myrmell is expanding his responsibilities to take on the role of regional president of Carnival Australia.
Effective immediately, Myrmell will overseas operations for the shared services group of seven brands sailing in Australia and New Zealand, and reports to Jan Swartz, group president of Princess Cruises and Carnival Australia.
"In addition to his responsibilities as the head of P&O Cruises Australia, Sture will lead the local shared services team that provides regional support across a number of internal and external functions for the business," Ms Swartz said.
"Sture has done an outstanding job as president of P&O Cruises Australia ensuring the brand reflects the energy of modern Australia, and this most recent appointment reinforces the strength of the local environment and Carnival Corporation and PLC’s commitment to the region."
Myrmell fills the gap left by Ann Sherry who takes on a part-time executive chairman role after 10 years at the helm of Carnival Australia.
Myrmell has spent nearly 25 years in global cruising including the last decade at P&O Cruises Australia.
