Solid State Logic has recruited Mark Davidson to take the newly created role of Global Systems & Solutions Business Development Manager.
Based in Munich, Davidson will be responsible for the SSL global strategic business development strategies in relation to the SSL Integration I/O and Workstation Partner Products (WPP) product portfolio, with a focus on, but not restricted to, the broadcast and system integration markets.
‘We searched for a long time to find the right person to represent SSL in the global install and integration markets, so it is simply great to have Mark on the team,’ says Jim Motley, Head of Business, Workstation Partner Products for SSL. ‘With Mark onboard, we have someone with a proven track record of establishing new routes to market. This capability is a key element for us and we are confident that he will help develop this growing sector for SSL. I’m confident that Mark will be a useful contact for both our existing partners and new clients alike.’
Davidson joins SSL with extensive sales and marketing as well as strategic business development experience within the international broadcast, live performance and fixed installation markets. Most recently, he worked for Optocore, where he was responsible for the global sales and marketing, as well as managing the back office sales and marketing and technical support teams. Prior to this, Davidson worked at Clear-Com as Regional Sales Manager for the Eastern US region from a New York office, where, within a two-year period, he oversaw an increase in turnover by more than double. Before New York, Davidson was International Sales Manager for Clear-Com located, looking after the Eastern Central and Western Europe regions. Previously he also worked for Riedel Communications on a number of very high-profile broadcast communication infrastructure-based projects.
‘SSL’s reputation for quality and innovation, as well as the respect it has obtained from its peers, made accepting the offer to become part of the global SSL team a very simple decision,’ Davidson says. ‘The company has some very exciting new products in development and I am looking forward to being part of the continuing SSL success story into the future.’
