Following its sale to Brookfield Business Partners in April 2022, Scientific Games will expand the newly founded Digital and Sports Betting team.

The leadership team that manages the digital lottery and lottery sports betting services will also be examined.

To support this, Scientific Games is currently hiring for various jobs, including CRM Manager, Senior Web Developer and Head of Digital Business Development.

Scientific Games is a provider of lottery games, second-chances games and sports betting services.

The company provides iLottery solutions to more than 20 US and 30 international lotteries, and lottery sports betting to regions across the US, Canada and Europe.

Steve Beason, President of Digital and Sports Betting in Scientific Games, said: "We are investing in people, products and technology platforms that give lotteries the opportunity to engage with their players across all channels.

"We've pioneered digital and sports betting solutions for lotteries since 2004.

“Now, in this next era, we've redefined our strategic focus and growth paths to position Scientific Games as the global leader in digital and sports to help our customers responsibly drive revenues for their beneficiary programs."

As part of the changes in management, Amy Bergette was promoted to SVP of Digital Solutions. Some of her new responsibilities include driving product and program innovations within Scientific Games' game studios.

Kira Summers was promoted to VP of Operations and Planning for Digital. She holds the Six Sigma Blackbelt certification and previously served as General Manager for the company’s iLottery program in Pennsylvania.

Merv Huber has also been promoted to VP of Digital Growth. His new responsibilities will include growing the business globally through the use of CRM solutions and marketing services.
