Rock Family of Companies and Bedrock Promote Greektown Executive, Detroit-Native Charles Wilson to Chief Security Officer

"We took a very deliberate approach to finding the right leader for security operations, conducting a nationwide search," said Jay Farner, Quicken Loans CEO. "No matter who we spoke with, or where we looked, Charles' name and skill set always stood out, and he was already leading the security apparatus at Greektown Casino-Hotel, which will make his transition seamless. His strong background and experience makes him the perfect match for this dynamic and important position, and the fact that he is a native Detroiter is another tremendous plus."

In addition to most recently serving as the Vice President of Support Services at Greektown Casino-Hotel for the last four years, Wilson served 20 years in the Detroit Police Department (DPD), retiring as Commander and Chief of Staff to current Chief, James Craig.

Among other responsibilities, he was a direct liaison to the business community, fostering a positive working relationship between DPD and local businesses. Wilson held several other prominent leadership positions during his tenure at DPD, including Commanding Officer of the Northwestern District, as well as roles within the homicide, auto theft, internal affairs and tactical operations.

"I am inspired by the new challenge before me and look forward to working alongside all of the talented men and women of the security team and the entire Rock Family of Companies," Wilson said. "I have dedicated my career to Detroit, and it is an honor and privilege to be part of an organization so actively involved in the community. The Rock Family of Companies has hired thousands of Detroiters, breathed new life into historic buildings and committed its significant resources to both the rebirth of downtown and Detroit's neighborhoods. I am proud to be leading the organization's focus on safety as a key pillar of its overall mission."

Wilson, a self-described 'sneakerhead,' (and naturally, a StockX customer) was born and raised in the city of Detroit.
