SSL APPOINT BROADCAST DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR

OXFORD based Solid State Logic Ltd have announced the appointment of John Andrews to the new post of Broadcast Development Director, with effect from September 1st, 2000.
Appointed Marketing Director in 1997, Andrews was responsible for the introduction of the ‘A Class’ digital console range, including Avant 'Focused on Film and Perfect for Post', Axiom-MT 'Made for Music' and Aysis-Air 'Born to Broadcast'.
Managing Director, John Jeffery said: "There has been increased activity in all key market sectors, but while SSL is naturally very strong in the music console market, with many of our staff having experience of it at the highest levels, the requirements of the expanding Broadcast sector are different.
"John Andrews is uniquely qualified in this area, with his operational and managerial experience at the BBC and his sales and marketing background in the audio broadcast industry. I am therefore extremely pleased that John has agreed to take on the challenge of focusing parts of the company on this vitally important area."
An announcement about Andrews's replacement is expected to be made shortly.
