Joseph J Hasson has been appointed the new interim COO for the Mohegan tribal gaming authority following the resignation of current COO Jody Madigan, effective August 1, 2024.
On top of the new role, Hasson will retain his current role as general manager of Mohegan Casino at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas, subject to necessary regulatory filings or approvals.
Mohegan reports that Hasson was “an obvious choice” for the management board, “given his prior experience as the former COO of Station Casinos LLC and Red Rock Resorts.”
Hasson brings considerable expertise to the executive team with a consistent track record of operating excellence and success over more than 40 years’ experience in the gaming and hospitality industry. He will report to Ray Pineault, president and CEO of Mohegan.
“Joseph J. Hasson’s deep understanding of the gaming and hospitality industry makes him exceptionally qualified to maintain our high service and operational excellence standards,” said Pineault. “We are confident that Joe’s extensive experience and proven leadership will ensure continuity in our operations and guest experience.”
