Carnival Corporation's ’New Bahamas Financial Controller Learline Burrows-Moss
Carnival Corporation Names Bahamian Financial Expert Learline Burrows-Moss
as Financial Controller of Bahamas Operations
June 5, 2024 – Carnival Corporation & plc (NYSE/LSE: CCL; NYSE: CUK), the leading cruise company in
the Caribbean and world's largest cruise company, has appointed Learline Burrows-Moss as Financial
Controller for the company’s Bahamas operations. A born Grand Bahamian, Burrows-Moss will oversee
accounting and finance functions for Carnival Corporation’s three exclusive destinations in the Bahamas,
including Half Moon Cay, Princess Cays and the new flagship cruise destination Celebration Key set to
open in 2025 and expected to boost the Grand Bahama economy and create hundreds of direct and
indirect Bahamian jobs.
With over 15 years of extensive experience in auditing, accounting, and leadership roles, Burrows-Moss
brings a wealth of expertise to this pivotal position. Her impressive career spans both public accounting
and private industry, including a decade of controllership experience in the utilities sector. Notably, she
was Financial Controller for Grand Bahama Power, where she managed all accounting operations and
played a key role in corporate-wide strategic decision-making. Previously, Burrows-Moss held other top
financial and account positions, including at Cable Bahamas.
“Learline’s diverse background and proven track record of success – not to mention her deep familiarity
with the Bahamas business community – make her an invaluable addition to the Carnival Corporation
team in the Bahamas,” said Gisella Mazzilli, Carnival Corporation Vice President of Finance &
Accounting, and the company’s Global Ports and Destinations Group CFO. “She has the same keen eye
for detail and a commitment to excellence that we have noted in many of the Grand Bahamian executives
coming aboard our growing team in the Bahamas.”
In addition to her professional accomplishments, Burrows-Moss is an active member of the Bahamas
Institute of Chartered Accountants and the Rotary Club of Freeport. She is deeply committed to
community engagement and has dedicated her time to training and development initiatives, including
serving as a part-time lecturer at the University of Bahamas.
Burrows-Moss said: “Carnival Corporation is demonstrating a commitment to working in partnership with
the local community to create economic growth and sustainable development across its three exclusive
destinations in the Bahamas. Speaking as a proud Grand Bahamian, I’ve seen firsthand the company’s
commitment to our nation and the positive impact it is creating across all sectors of Bahamian society,
and I know the new Celebration Key development will be equally transformative for Grand Bahamas and
its economy. I am so happy to be part of the team that will deliver this exciting project.”
Carnival Corporation’s appointment of Burrows-Moss underscores its long-term commitment to recruiting
Bahamian talent across its operations. Most recently the company pledged to collaborate closely with
Bahamian-owned businesses, with the goal of having at least 75 percent of outlets at its new Celebration
Key destination owned and operated by Bahamians. Celebration Key is expected to generate over 700
permanent jobs in the community, with approximately 300 positions directly hired by Carnival. Moreover,
with its recent $100 million pier extension investment, Celebration Key is poised to make a significant
impact on the community of Grand Bahama Island.
