DuPont Engineering Polymers adjusts European sales & marketing structure to reflect global polymer market

DuPont Engineering Polymers (EP, www.dupont.com) has realigned its European organizational and geographical structure to reflect the increasingly global nature of its business. The changes form part of the business’ overall business strategy to deliver value to its customers through innovation, product quality & supply reliability and enhanced global capabilities.

With effect from 1 July 2008, James R Hay (Picture), currently sales director EP Americas, also gained responsibility for the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region and will relocate to Geneva, Switzerland. His predecessor in the European role, Alain Baronnier, has accepted a new global assignment within DuPont Performance Coatings as global business director powder coatings.

As part of its organizational restructuring for sales and marketing within EMEA, DuPont EP has concurrently divided the regions into three clusters, which are lead by:

• Xavier Ciurana, sales manager for Western Europe, with responsibility for France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, the UK and Ireland;

• Christian Beers, sales manager for Central Europe, to include Germany, Switzerland, Czechia, Slovakia, the Benelux region and the Nordic countries,

• and Jeroen van Campen (previously European marketing manager for Vespel®) as sales manager with responsibility for Eastern Europe (excluding Czechia and Slovakia), the Middle-East and Africa.

“We remain committed to growth with our customers in the EMEA region, many of which are managing their businesses across several countries and expect us to serve them accordingly,” says Bjoern Hedlund, vice president global sales and marketing for DuPont EP. “The organizational changes we have announced today are aimed at driving innovation and delivering value in all three clusters of our region, where interaction between East and West is key to our success.”
