Riedel announces changes to key Australia roles
Published: ASIA
AUSTRALIA: Riedel Communications has announced two managerial role shifts that will enable the company's Australian branch to continue its rapid growth. Cameron O'Neill will take on the role of general manager, while Peter Cochrane has been named rental operations manager, where he will be responsible for expanding the rental business and will assist other APAC offices in expanding and optimising their own rental operations.
The move builds on the opening of a new Riedel Australia office and warehouse, strategically located near other production rental companies and broadcast/OB facilities in Sydney, earlier this year.
‘Being fuelled by the growth of the market and the success of our worldwide rental operations, both of these appointments will better enable Riedel Australia to capitalise on the strengths and experience of two valuable team members,’ said Jens Miedek, director of international sales at Riedel Communications.
‘Australia is home to Riedel's second-largest rental division, which has staged events all over Australia, New Zealand, India and the UAE, and Peter's deep involvement in this business makes him a natural pick to lead this rapidly growing division of Riedel Australia. Cam has established great standing in this market and built strong relationships between Riedel and key media and entertainment companies in Australia, so he is very well-qualified to step into the general manager role.’
