In its landmark 30th year, the PAD Group announces its expansion, with the appointment of Robbie Dunne as EMEA Sales & Marketing Director.
The respected pro audio retailer and studio design group which is headquartered in Hanover, Massachusetts, is working towards maximizing its existing opportunities and growing its portfolio in the EMEA region and Dunne will be pivotal in driving this forward.
Having spent much of his long-spanning career in the professional recording and pro audio distribution industries, Dunne has experience in managing large and complex projects and a proven track record in generating revenue growth.
Dunne will support the growth of the PAD Group’s presence in this territory by developing sales opportunities across multiple market verticals, including studio, post-production, broadcast, education, immersive and high-end domestic audio installation.
“I’m really pleased to join the PAD Group as Sales & Marketing Director,” comments Dunne. “My role will be key in establishing new and nurturing existing partnerships in the EMEA region, which are critical to our growth. There are exciting times ahead for our brands, and I’m very much looking forward to getting started.”
One of Dunne’s main focuses will be on driving awareness of the Augspurger® Monitors brand in this new region, from his base in Granada, Spain, which provides the ideal location for access to local and wider European markets.
“Augspurger® Monitors’ user base has grown exponentially in recent times, and systems can be found in many flagship recording studios across the world, with many high-profile producers and artists among its fans,” remarks Dunne. “Some of our recent projects include installations at the iconic Quad Studios, Top Dawg Entertainment and Snoop Dogg’s Beach City Music, and our artist users include Jaycen Joshua, P Diddy, The Weekend, Coldplay and Wiz Khalifa – the list is impressive! My role is to not only support our existing dealer network in the EMEA region, but to bolster the brand with new dealers in central locations and grow our artist roster by further developing our ambassador program.”
PAD Group President, Dave Malekpour comments, “Robbie brings a wealth of sales experience as well as a true passion for audio, which makes him the perfect fit for this role and our team. We’re looking forward to working together to grow our brands’ presence in the EMEA region.”
