The Massachusetts Gaming Commission (MGC), which has been without key staff leadership for months, has been advancing the process toward filling two critical positions.
Executive Director Karen Wells announced her resignation early in the summer, and her last day was July 14. Investigations Enforcement Bureau Chief Loretta Lilios left the MGC in August.
The MGC posted a job opening for the executive director position on its website. That posting currently has no expiration date. The commission has plans to move forward in the coming months interviewing candidates to replace acting director Todd Grossman, who is also MGC counsel.
According to a report in SportsHandle, the process for replacing Lilios took a step forward last week when the search subcommittee, made up of commissioners Brad Hill, Nakisha Skinner and Dave Muldrew, the agency’s chief people and diversity officer, selected Skinner as the chair. The group also has crafted a job description, with the goal is to have the description approved at the November 2 meeting.
