Chicago-based gambling and hospitality company Rush Street Gaming has appointed Susan Foster as general manager of Rivers Casino Philadelphia.
Foster has been assistant general manager since April and succeeds Eric Althaus as GM.
“Susan’s broad worldview of gaming operations has significantly benefited Rush Street since she joined last spring,” Rush Street Gaming CEO Tim Drehkoff said in a news release. “Her history and familiarity with the southeastern Pennsylvania gaming market has proven to be a great advantage for Rivers Philly.”
Foster’s career has stretched across the United Kingdom, the Bahamas and Nigeria. She previously worked in Philadelphia at Harrah’s, where she was awarded Caesars Entertainment’s highest award for excellence in leadership.
“I’m very excited to be back in Pennsylvania at such a dynamic property,” Foster said in a news release. “Having worked in various gaming jurisdictions in America and several other countries, I’m both an advocate for and an example of the tremendous opportunities casino gaming provides.”
In April, Rush Street Interactive, the digital arm of Rush Street Gaming, appointed Brian Sapp as its first chief marketing officer.
