The Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority has announced the appointment of Joseph J. Hasson as interim Chief Operating Officer. Jody Madigan, the current COO, has resigned effective August 1, 2024, and will be taking a leave of absence pending his departure.
Hasson will serve as interim COO and retain his current role as General Manager of Mohegan Casino at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas, subject to necessary regulatory filings or approvals, as per a company statement.
The casino operator said Hasson was “an obvious choice” for the company’s management board given his prior experience as the former COO of Station Casinos LLC and Red Rock Resorts Inc.
Mohegan noted that Hasson has vast knowledge of the industry, having accumulated more than 40 years’ worth of experience in the gaming and hospitality sector. Hasson will report to Ray Pineault, President and CEO of Mohegan.
