New Sales Manager at Ringier Romandie in Zofingen

Thierry Furrer has been Ringier Romandie's new Head of Sales for the German-speaking Swiss advertising market since the beginning of February. He succeeds Rolf Leber, who will be taking early retirement in January 2007 after twelve years as head of the department. Until then, Leber will take on some tasks in the area of special editions and introduce Furrer to his work, the media company announced. The Ringier Romandie site in Zofingen, with its eight employees, will continue to play an important role in the future, as it generates the largest share of sales for the French-speaking part of Ringier in the advertising sector, the communiqué continues. Thierry Furrer will be under the management of Patrick Zanello, who has headed the marketing and advertising department of Ringier Romandie since April 2005.
