Mohegan has appointed Joseph Hasson as chief operating officer (COO) of its gaming business.
Hasson has been serving as Mohegan’s interim COO since April and now assumes the role on a permanent basis, leading the development and execution of strategic business plans across all Mohegan properties.
He will oversee the day-to-day operations of Mohegan’s resorts in the United States, Canada and South Korea, alongside his responsibilities as general manager of Mohegan Casino at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas during the transition of the casinos ownership.
Hasson will report directly to Mohegan president and CEO Ray Pineault.
“Joe Hasson’s expertise, garnered over more than 40 years in the gaming and hospitality industries, coupled with his exemplary leadership at our Las Vegas property, positions him uniquely to ensure strategic alignment and continuity across Mohegan’s diverse portfolio,” said Pineault.
“We are confident that his leadership as our Chief Operating Officer will be instrumental in our sustained success.”
Hasson’s appointment follows that of Nelson Parker to the role of chief strategy officer in June, and coincides with the release of the company’s financial results for the fiscal third quarter ended June 30, 2024.
