Paul Whiting has retired from his post as President of Strategic Collaborations at Sennheiser electronic after more than 25 years with the company. He leaves it enjoying a much higher profile in the professional audio, consumer and integrated systems industries than it did.

Whiting’s career with Sennheiser began in 1990 after 15 years with former UK partner Hayden Laboratories, which saw him establish a Sennheiser pro audio network in the UK and head the company’s professional division as Sales & Marketing Manager.

On joining Sennheiser, he helped establish Sennheiser UK as a wholly owned subsidiary and, as MD, oversaw the company’s continued UK expansion. His technical and organisational skills saw him promoted to Vice President North West Europe. In 2007, he became President of Global Sales, also joining the Sennheiser Executive Management Board and helping to almost double the company’s turnover between 2006 and today.

In 2015, Whiting became President of Strategic Collaborations, where he focused on co-operation with artists and engineers, other businesses, industry partners and organisations.

‘Paul has contributed significantly to the success of Sennheiser, being an integral part of numerous successful company projects,’ says company CEO, Daniel Sennheiser. ‘His dedication to customer service, great ability to network, continuous loyalty to the brand and technical hands-on solutions brought him an outstanding reputation within Sennheiser and throughout the audio industry. I am very grateful to him for his passion and many achievements throughout his years with Sennheiser. We all wish him and his family the very best for the future.’
