The New Jersey Symphony Orchestra announced on Wednesday that James Roe, its acting principal oboist, has been named its new president and chief executive and that Susan Stucker will be its new chief operating officer. Mr. Roe will succeed Richard Dare, who resigned in January after only nine days on the job after questions were raised by symphony supporters, the orchestra said, about a long-dismissed criminal case. Ms. Stucker had been serving as the interim president and chief executive and is the orchestra’s former vice president of operations. In a joint statement, the co-chairs of the board of trustees said that Mr. Roe and Ms. Stucker, who will assume their positions on July 1, “represent the wealth of talent that is within the organization.â€
