Maddox will leave the position on Jan. 31. He will be succeeded by Craig Billings, chief executive of Wynn Interactive, the company’s digital division, the company said. Billings has also served as president and chief financial officer of Wynn Resorts, which operates casinos in Las Vegas, in the Boston area and in the Chinese territory of Macau.
