Elation Professional has announced that industry professional Jean Lariviere has joined the company’s sales team as rental and production market manager.
Lariviere will work to build on the success Elation has gained in working with top lighting designers and exposing them to the Elation product line.
Elation sales director Eric Loader commented on the hiring: “We are excited that an industry veteran of Jean’s caliber is joining the Elation team. We are confident that his relationship network and industry knowledge will have a positive effect on growth in all of our territories as we continue to expand our efforts into this market.”
Lariviere will work closely with lighting designers as well as Elation’s extensive network of rental company partners to add to the continued growth of the Elation brand. He will be continuing the efforts John Dunn started when he joined Elation a few years ago in the same role. John Dunn moved into the role of national sales manager for Elation’s U.S. market earlier this year.
Lariviere brings a wealth of industry experience and knowledge to Elation, having worked for six years for High End Systems in R&D and product support, as well as Regional Sales Manager. More recently he worked for SHS Global. Jean, who is based in Austin, Texas, started in the position on June 1st.
