Genting Americas has appointed Scott Molina as president of Resorts World Casino New York City, the company’s U.S. flagship.

Molina has been with the property since 2011, joining as part of the opening team then moving into a number of executive roles, including director of slot operations, vice president of slot operations and, most recently, chief operating officer.

In his new role, he will oversee all operations at the Queens, N.Y., racino, one of the largest in the country, with more than 5,500 machine games and electronic table games.

“I have been fortunate during this time to work with an incredibly talented team. The future is as bright as ever and I am eager to do my part in taking this journey to the next level,” he said.

A 30-year industry veteran, Molina previously served as executive director of Slot Operations at Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City. He has also led the opening of a number of casinos across the country.

“Scott has built an impressive track record of success and is the perfect choice to lead Resorts World Casino New York City,” said Ed Farrell, president of Genting’s Resorts World Americas subsidiary. “As a member of our opening team, Scott played a key role in the enormous success of Resorts World, and I look forward to continue to work with him as we embark on new growth initiatives.”
