(Reuters) -Disney on Tuesday named insider Michael Moriarty as the finance chief and executive vice president of Disney Experiences, succeeding Kevin Lansberry.

Moriarty, who has been the president and managing director of the Hong Kong Disneyland Resort for the past five years, will take over when Lansberry retires in February next year.

He has held different leadership roles in Disney for nearly two decades, including his time as the former CFO at Walt Disney Imagineering.
