NEW APPOINTMENTS - Marketing Department
Britax expanded its marketing and design capabilities in mid 2008 with the appointment of Trent Whayman as Promotions Coordinator and Ben Johnston as Marketing Communications Manager. Trent has the design and desktop skills to match his corrupt sense of humour. He has already proved to be a wizard with customer brochures and has a knack for all things interactive and online. Ben has a background in corporate communications and advertising, and also features a somewhat unscrupulous wit. With his prior experience designing for national clients and a specialisation in corporate visual identity, Ben has begun orchestrating the future brand direction of Britax and is loving every minute of it.

Graham's role is critical to a long-term strategy that includes a strong emphasis on new product introductions.

In 2005 Britax Australia appointed Warren Reeve as the Managing Director. Warren has been a Director of the company since 2000. During his time at the helm, Warren has executed some strategic restructuring through the ranks of Britax, especially in the Aftermarket side of the business.
November 2005 saw the appointment of Ross Ollington as the new Aftermarket National Sales and Marketing Manager.
