Rush Street Gaming has appointed gaming executive Susan Foster to the position of general manager of Rivers Casino Philadelphia, US.
Foster joined Rivers Casino Philadelphia in April 2024 as assistant general manager. She succeeds Eric Althaus, who recently departed the Philadelphia property.
Though her career has taken her to many places including the UK, Bahamas and Nigeria, Foster has worked in Philadelphia before at Harrah’s where she received Caesars Entertainment’s highest award for excellence in leadership.
She then worked at Hollywood Casino as vice president of operations at multiple Penn Entertainment properties for nearly a decade, before joining Rivers Casino Philadelphia in April 2024 as assistant general manager.
“Having worked in various gaming jurisdictions in America and several other countries, I’m both an advocate for and an example of the tremendous opportunities casino gaming provides,” said Foster. “I’m very excited to be back in Pennsylvania at such a dynamic property.”
“Susan’s broad worldview of gaming operations has significantly benefited Rush Street since she joined last spring,” said Tim Drehkoff, CEO of Rush Street Gaming. “Her history and familiarity with the southeastern Pennsylvania gaming market has proven to be a great advantage for Rivers Philly.”
