Dan will report to James King, director of marketing, and his duties will include management of both the product portfolio and product support team to ensure Martin Audio's catalogue remains strong and relevant to market dynamics. At the same time, he will be tasked with delivering improved territory application support and monitoring.
With extensive pro-audio experience in both the live sound and installation markets, Dan has worked in a variety of engineering development and application engineer roles with both Turbosound and L-Acoustics.
Commenting on the appointment, James King said, "Dan is the perfect choice for this new role and I am excited by his technical expertise and insight, that will be invaluable as this business continues to grow."
Orton's appointment is the fourth for Martin Audio since September 2016, following Robin Dibble as product support engineer, Bradley Watson as EMEA account manager and Bradley Stephens as US Southeast regional sales manager. MD Dom Harter comments, "Martin Audio continues on the most ambitious product development drive in its history, and all of these guys bring the wealth of industry experience we need to push forward."
