Is there a word that means "the person who is to receive a report"?

I'm looking for the equivalent of assignee with the difference that it would describe the person who is to be reported to.

Example:

  • The assigner assigned the assignment to the assignee.
  • The reporter reported the report to the [reportee?].

As Peter Shor notes in the comments, the most appropriate word is recipient:

recipient — somebody or something that receives something
