Job Location: In-office at headquarters in Salem, Oregon
Compensation Range: $220,260 - $230,820
Motus Recruiting and Staffing is proud to partner with The State of Oregon in its executive search for a Director, Oregon Lottery.
ABOUT THE OREGON LOTTERY:
Oregon’s lottery is both a public trust and a market-driven business. Lottery dollars fund education, economic growth, state parks, natural habitats, veteran services, and Outdoor School for junior high school students. These dollars are allocated to gambling addiction treatment and awareness throughout the state.
The Lottery’s mission is set out in Article XV of Oregon’s constitution: “Operate a lottery with the highest standards of security and integrity to earn maximum profits for the people of Oregon commensurate with the public good.” The Oregon Lottery is the state’s second-largest funding source after personal income tax, contributing nearly $15B to state funding since 1985. We strive to earn profit responsibility, to minimize potential social costs such as gambling addiction.
The five-member Lottery Commission oversees the governance of the Oregon Lottery. The Governor appoints Commission members for four-year terms, and the State Senate confirms the appointments.
