Lawo’s Jamie Dunn is to take on additional responsibilities as Vorstand and Deputy CEO.
Dunn, who joined the company in 2011 and has been Lawo’s Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) since 2019, will now assume legal responsibility alongside CEO Philipp Lawo and Claus Gärtner, who joined the company as CFO and Vorstand last year.
‘With Claudia Nowak’s retirement in September of this year, it was important to bring a strong representation of the customer and market perspective to the Vorstand role,’ Gärtner says.
Lawo’s Management Board consists of Jamie Dunn (Deputy CEO and Vorstand), Claus Gärtner (CFO and Vorstand), Andreas Hilmer (CMO), Christian Lukic (CSCO), Phil Myers (CTO), Ulrich Schnabl (COO) and Claudia Nowak (CFO and Vorstand), who will retire at the end of September 2024 and join the company’s Supervisory Board.
‘It has been an incredible experience over the past 13 years to contribute to the growth and transformation of this market-leading company,’ Dunn says. ‘During this time, our global brand has been a leading advocate for the industry’s shift to IP. The longevity of Lawo rests on many pillars, but talented and passionate people remain key to our continued success and loyal customer base. Innovation has always been at the core of our development philosophy, and the story of our media infrastructure solutions is resonating strongly in the marketplace, putting us in prime position to address the commercial and workflow challenges our customers face today.’
Trained as a classical recording engineer and a Tonmeister bachelor, Dunn spent the early part of his career traveling and working with world-famous musicians. After moving to the manufacturing side of the business, his technical knowledge, combined with his sales expertise, saw him take on numerous global sales leadership roles in both Europe and the US at Lawo.
‘Jamie is the natural choice for the additional responsibilities of the Deputy CEO role given his longevity with the company, his strong standing with our customers and his deep understanding of the market,’ Gärtner says. ‘There are exciting times ahead for Lawo.’
