An off-Strip casino operating under a new management structure has brought on a marketing executive with valuable on-Strip experience.
Virgin Las Vegas hotel-casino announced John Fechik as its new senior vice president of marketing. Fechik, who posted about the career change on a social media network last month, had been with The Venetian hotel-casino for more than 15 years in various positions prior to being appointed to the new role with Virgin.
In a news release about the appointment, Virgin described Fechik as an “accomplished executive with a proven ability to attract and retain players in competitive markets,” adding that his “expertise includes building and leading highly motivated teams, strategic planning, events and promotions and player development and acquisition.”
