(Manila).- PAGCOR has sworn in a new President and Chief Operating Officer after lawyer Wilma Eisma took an oath of office in Malacanang on Thursday.
Eisma replaces Juanito L. Sañosa Jr., who stepped down in January after less than 18 months in the role.
“We are happy to welcome Atty. Wilma Eisma as PAGCOR’s new President and COO,” said PAGCOR Chairman and CEO, Alejandro Tengco. “We know she will be a great asset, and her vast experience in both the government and private sectors will surely be put to good use here.”
Tengco said he witnessed Eisma’s oath-taking in Malacanang on Thursday morning before she joined her first PAGCOR Board meeting in the afternoon as the agency’s first ever female President and COO.
According to information from the regulator, Eisma earned her law degree from the Ateneo de Manila University and was a member of the Board of Directors of the Development Bank of the Philippines before joining the state gaming firm.
She previously served as the first female Administrator and Chairman of the Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority. Her private sector stints include leadership roles in PMFTC Inc, the Philippine affiliate of Philip Morris International, while she has held key positions at the Department of Trade and Industry where she worked at the Office of the Secretary and in the Office of the Majority Leader in the House of Representatives, among others.
