Shouldn't the appointment of such an important post as Director of Immigration be subject to Senatorial review?

I don't know if this department is under DHS but it should be, and the director of it should not be a political hack.

In a word, no. Everything is laid out nice and neat in the constitution concerning who needs to be vetted by the senate and by exclusion, who doesn't. Constitutional Amendments placing more appointments before the senate aren't likely to be forthcoming.
