Ben Slack is the Chief Commercial Officer of World Rugby, the global sports governing body of rugby union and the organiser of major events such as the Rugby World Cup and other events such as the annual HSBC SVNS Series. Ben and his team are responsible for delivering commercial growth across major revenue streams so that it can be reinvested back into the sport.

Following the recent success of Rugby World Cup 2023 in France, World Rugby turns its attention to the delivery of the next ten years of Rugby World Cup events in England (2025 – women’s), Australia (2027 – men’s and 2029 – women’s) as well as building out a fan-centric rugby business in the US ready for men’s and women’s Rugby World Cups to be hosted there in 2031 and 2033.

Prior to World Rugby, Ben was the Chief Revenue and Experiential Officer of Tennis Australia and played an important role in the development of the Australian Open to the Grand Slam that it is today. Prior to joining the sports and entertainment industry, Ben spent several years of his career in various marketing and sales roles at Ford Motor Company.
