Harken has appointed Emanuele Cecchini as Commercial Director of its European, Asia-Pacific, Middle East, and African operations. Cecchini adds this responsibility to his current role as Commercial Director of Harken Italy. Overall he has been a part of the Harken team for 18 years, seven in his current role.
“I’m confident that having Emanuele in his new role within this revised organizational framework will support and improve Harken’s growth process as a dynamic presence in each area worldwide,” said Matt Malec, Harken COO.
This promotion formalizes Cecchini’s role developing and organising key commercial strategies in Marine and Safety & Rescue markets and succession plans in non-Harken-owned distribution settings. He will continue to work closely with Harken managing directors to support their key initiatives, and support channel managers in the development of key accounts.
“We’re headquartered in North America, but the markets outside North America are critically important for our long-term success,” said Bill Goggins, Harken CEO. “Emanuele understands this as well as anyone at Harken. He’s a great leader with a genuine desire to serve our customers. We’re confident in his abilities and wish him great success in his new role.”
