2/22/2012 8:49 AM EST
Crestron has invested heavily in its business development recently with a strong unveiling of new product lines and an influx of new talent to the company. This pattern is set continue with the latest appointment of Matthew Buck to the position of commercial account manager. Matthew will be responsible for bringing new members into the Crestron family as well as maintaining good links with existing clients.
Matthew’s solid background in business-to-business sales and knowledge of the commercial AV sector - in which he has worked since 2005 - puts him in good stead for his new post at Crestron. Since graduating from Swansea Metropolitan, Matthew worked for Polar Audio (originally BeyerdynamicUK) and progressed from the position of consumer products manager to business development manager; where he was responsible for key accounts in the South East, generating over 30% of the company’s turnover.
“Crestron has long since been the leader in control and automation systems which makes my new role a real privilege and hugely exciting,” says Matthew. “Having gained some valuable experience working within the professional AV market at Polar, I’m relishing the prospect of working with an already strong and successful team to further the success of the Crestron brand.”
“At Crestron we value experience and are keen to support and nurture new talent within the industry,” says Robin van Meeuwen, VP of Sales and Marketing at Crestron International. “We are very happy about bringing Matthew into the team as he is a vibrant young candidate who has demonstrated his expert knowledge and grasp of the challenges of the industry. We are hugely confident in his abilities to grow business in Crestron’s commercial arm and we look forward to working with him for a great many years to come.”
