Scientific Games recruits new global trading director from TAB New Zealand
Former Tom Waterhouse head of product Glen Saville replaces Benjie Cherniak at Las Vegas-based supplier
Scientific Games has hired former TAB New Zealand betting manager Glen Saville as its new senior director of global trading.
Saville takes over from Benjie Cherniak, who announced his departure from the supplier two weeks ago after more than 12 years as president of Don Best Sports.
Saville started his career in gambling as head of product at Australian sportsbook operator Tom Waterhouse in 2010 before moving to the New Zealand Racing Board with TAB in 2014.
The Australian will be based in Las Vegas and will be responsible for growing the Scientific Games global trading business, overseeing Don Best Sports and the supplier’s European operations.
Saville said: “I’m thrilled to have joined Scientific Games and look forward to the exciting task ahead.
“Having worked closely with the company and the OpenSports ecosystem at NZRB, I’m fully aware of the leading sports betting solutions that we offer.
“In the months ahead, I’m keen to introduce new ways of elevating our trading capabilities to ensure that our customers receive the best possible service,” he added.
