Former Fontainebleau Las Vegas president Mark Tricano has moved on to Station Casinos as senior vice president of operations. It is a homecoming of sorts for Tricano, who was general manager of Station’s Red Rock Resort between 2012 and 2015.
“Mark is a talented casino executive who not only knows our company well, but his extensive operations and analytics background will bring immense value to our organization,” said Scott Kreeger, president of Station Casinos, in a statement. “We are thrilled to welcome him back to the family and look forward to his contributions.”
According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Tricano helped open the $3.7 billion Fontainebleau in December, and was president for the first six weeks of its operation, after which parent company Fontainebleau Development brought on Maurice Wooden, a former Wynn Resorts executive, to succeed him. Tricano was moved to what the newspaper called “an undisclosed role that reported to Wooden.”
In a concurrent statement, Fontainebleau said, “We are thrilled to have welcomed Maurice Wooden as the president of Fontainebleau Las Vegas. Wooden’s integration has already made a positive impact on the organization.”
Tricano’s resume also includes a role as senior vice president for Hong Kong-based Galaxy Entertainment Corp., in charge of operations and labor, and stints at Caesars Entertainment and Jack Entertainment.
