Synovate Promotes Miller to North America CEO

Synovate has promoted Scott Miller to the post of North America CEO, responsible for its US and Canada business units, replacing Robert Skolnick who takes up the post of President of Industry Sectors North America.

Miller, who has more than 22 years' market research experience, most recently served as MD of Global Relationships, prior to which, he was CEO of Synovate Motoresearch, the firm's automotive division.

He began his career in market surveys at Saturn Corporation, and also spent 12 years with Motoresearch as VP and Partner before the firm was acquired by Synovate in 2000.

'Scott has been responsible for driving our business with many of our top clients in North America and across the globe, and has played a key role in getting our business on track over the last several months,' states Global CEO Robert Philpott. 'Having worked with him for ten years now, I've come to respect him enormously in both areas and know that he will do a fantastic job as the head of our North America business.'

In his new role, Miller will be based in the firm's Chicago office, while Skolnick remains in the New York office.

Skolnick has been with Synovate for 25 years, during which time he has been instrumental in growing the firm's specialist divisions and practices in the Americas, including financial services, technology and telecom, travel and leisure, diversity, Synovate Healthcare and others.

Skolnick's new role also involves the assessment of acquisition opportunities for Synovate across the globe.
