The president and chief executive of MTR Gaming Group Inc. is now a member of its board of directors.
The West Virginia-based gambling company announced CEO Robert Griffin's new title on Monday.
The company said late Friday that Jeffrey Jacobs and Stanley Gorom had resigned.
Steven Billick was elected to replace Jacobs and serve as chairman.
Billick says Griffin has performed well since joining MTR in 2008, steering the financial performance in the right direction during a weak economy.
Griffin replaced former President Ted Arneault, who had a 13-year run with the company.
MTR owns and operates Mountaineer Casino, Racetrack & Resort in Chester; Presque Isle Downs & Casino in Erie, Pa.; and Scioto Downs in Columbus, Ohio.
