FAIRLINE ANNOUNCES BRYAN JONES AS HEAD OF SALES -AMERICAS
British luxury motor yacht manufacturer Fairline Yachts has announced Bryan Jones as its new Head of Sales in the Americas, effective immediately.
Following a decade as Global Marketing Manager at Sunseeker International, Bryan returns to Fairline where he previously spent 13 years in several senior sales and marketing roles globally, including responsibility for Australasia and the Americas. This move sees him return to his sales roots in a role working closely with Fairline’s dealer network to help drive sales opportunities by maximising yacht owners’ exposure to the brand.
Fairline’s growing network of dealers in the Americas include Colony Marine in the Great Lakes, Strong’s Marine in the Tri-State area, Pacific Northwest Yachts in Seattle, MRN Yacht Sales in northern California, Nautical Ventures in Florida, Thomas Marine in Quebec and Performance Boats in Cancún.
Bryan said of the appointment: “I am delighted to be returning to Fairline, which holds a special place in my heart having started my leisure marine career here. What makes the company so special is the design, engineering and build quality of its award-winning yachts and the passion and dedication of all its employees. I am excited by the outstanding model range which will continue to grow; a range that is unique within our industry in terms of size and excellence which is proving extremely attractive to experienced dealers globally seeking the very best products in this sector.”
Fairline Sales Director James Powell said: “We are delighted to welcome Bryan back to the Fairline family and bring his wealth of experience and expertise to Fairline Americas. Bryan’s solid reputation for success within the marine industry is second to none and we’ve given him fantastic foundations to build on in the US. Our reputation for British craftsmanship, luxury and performance has grown from humble beginnings in the UK to worldwide recognition with a solid network of dealers across the Americas. Crucially, our dealers emulate our brand and all it represents to ensure customers enjoy the service and after sales expertise they expect of Fairline.”
Fairline offers the full product line to customers across the Americas within its four distinct ranges; the F//LINE, Targa, Phantom and Squadron, ranging from 33ft to 68ft, including the head-turning Targa 40 which launched earlier this year at Boot Düsseldorf and the recent, award winning, Squadron 58.
