Operator and developer Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment (MGE) has today announced the appointment of its new chief operating officer, Jody Madigan (pictured), who will be tasked with the development and execution of short- and long-term strategic business plans across all MGE properties.

Madigan has also served as the vice president of strategic execution and business development for Seneca Gaming, and spent two years as the president and general manager for Casino Miami, a Silver Entertainment property. 

At MGE as COO, Madigan will report to CEO and president Ray Pineault and will lead the development and implementation of the organization’s competitive positioning plans. He will also be tasked with ensuring marketing and operational plans to drive profitability, as well as lead the general managers at MGE properties to ensure that all strategic planning is in alignment with the executive leadership group and the Mohegan Tribe.
