Changing of Guard at Muller Martini Australia Pty Limited
G’day and (not quite) Farewell.
After 25 years with Muller Martini Australia, the last 10 years as Country Manager, Roman Beeler has decided that it is time to step aside. His successor, Ian Sampson, will be known to many in the industry.While Roman Beeler will step down as Country Manager for Muller Martini Australia, he’ll remain in the organization part-time and focus his efforts on the technical side of the business and special projects. Thus providing continuity and invaluable support to his successor and the Muller Martini team.
Ian Sampson is an industry veteran, having spent more than a decade in operations management with one of Australia’s leading printers. He says: “My job will be to pick up the reins from Roman and lead the Company through the challenges and opportunities coming from the ongoing consolidation in the Australian printing industry, and the further developments in the digital sphere, where we have some very interesting new developments coming up.”“Our business and organization in Australia is in good shape, so it is good timing for Roman to hand over the lead to Ian,” says Sven Olsen, Regional Managing Director of Muller Martini Asia Pacific. “And the fact that the two have known each other for 15 years and that Roman remains in the organization in a different role, is of course also extremely helpful for both us and our customers.”
