Salaries will vary by establishment and location. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) stats show that fulltime gaming managers earned a median annual wage of $46,820 in 1999. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $26,630, and the highest 10 percent earned just over $96,610.

Gaming supervisors take charge of gaming operations and employees in an assigned area. Circulating among the table games, they make sure that all stations and games are manned for each shift. It also is typical for supervisors to interpret the casino’s operating laws for gamblers. Supervisors will also plan and arrange activities for guests staying in their casino hotels.

Gaming supervisors must have leadership qualities and top notch communication skills. They need these abilities both to supervise workers adequately and to greet gamblers in order to boost return visits. Almost all casino supervisory staff have an associate or bachelor’s degree. Regardless of their educational background, however, most supervisors gain expertise in other wagering jobs before moving into supervisory areas because an understanding of games and casino operations is quite essential for these employees.
