The former Director and Chief Casino Officer of Genting Singapore’s Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) Andrew MacDonald has announced he will now serve as CEO of MagIQ Gaming in Singapore.
In an announcement on his personal LinkedIn profile, MacDonald stated he would be “starting a new position as CEO and Founder at MagIQ Gaming Corp Pte Ltd.”
No information was provided on the platform concerning the business provided by these companies.
Andrew MacDonald stepped down from his role in RWS on November 2nd, having been appointed to the role on February 22nd of this year.
MacDonald had over two years of service with the company, being in charge of casino operations. Prior to joining Genting Singapore, MacDonald served as Chief Casino Officer and Senior Vice President at Marina Bay Sands for more than nine years.
In August of this year, he received a Persona Non-Grata (PNG) notice, resulting in a ban from entering Marina Bay Sands (MBS). This action was reportedly due to his attempts to poach high rollers, a move seen by industry experts as unprecedented.
As part of the ban, MacDonald is prohibited from accessing any area of the MBS Integrated Resort, including the hotel, mall, convention center, and casino.
