US.- President and CEO of Mohegan Ray Pineault will step down on December 28. After nearly 25 years of service with the Mohegan Tribe, Pineault said he wanted to spend more time with his family.

Pineault was appointed to the role in 2021 and oversaw the reopening of Mohegan resorts following the Covid pandemic and the growth of Mohegan Digital. He began working with the Tribe in 2001 when he served as senior attorney for the Tribal Government. He has also served as president and general manager of Mohegan Sun and chief operating officer for Mohegan.

The company said that the Management Board of the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority is taking steps to facilitate a smooth transition.

Pineault stated: “With Mohegan well-positioned for the future, including the expansion of online gaming, the time is right for me to transition from my role as President and CEO of Mohegan. It has been my distinct honor to serve my Tribe for the past 25 years and I look forward to focusing more on my family who undoubtedly have made sacrifices for me to hold this position.”

Tribal Council chairman James Gessner Jr. added: “The devotion and passion Ray has demonstrated over the last 25 years are testaments to his unwavering dedication to helping our Tribe. Being the head of an organization, especially an international business, comes with immense responsibility, unrelenting hours and a willingness to make personal sacrifices for the betterment of his fellow Tribal members and the thousands of Mohegan employees who rely on his leadership and guidance.

“On behalf of the Board and our Tribe, we thank you for all you have done to protect every Mohegan for 13 generations to come. We wish happiness and blessings in the next part of your journey.”
