Selected for the role of Global Sales Manager for the Mud House Wine Group, Jack Glover has extensive experience in wine sales and marketing and joins the Mud House Wine Group from Pernod Richard, where he was employed as National Trading Manager – On Premise – as part of the Senior Management Team.
After commencing studies in winemaking, Glover adjusted his focus to wine marketing, completing the Bachelor of Wine Marketing degree in Adelaide.

“Mr Glover has an incredible breadth of experience in the wine industry and we believe he will shine in a role such as this. We look forward to him being a part of our company and continuing the global growth of our wine sales,” says Loza.
