Rimroth is well placed to take on the role of APG product manager: having worked for several years as a live sound engineer, he has spent the last nine years at Avid Technology in the UK as a field service engineer, and latterly as a field service manager responsible for the live sound sector.
"Audio-Technica has offered me exactly the kind of position I was hoping for," said Rimroth. "After more than 15 years in the UK, I was looking to come back to Germany, and the post with Audio-Technica was just the sort of challenge I was looking for. APG is an excellent brand with world class products that I shall be honoured to represent in Germany. The potential for growth is there - it's up to me and the rest of the Audio-Technica team to exploit it."
APG's international business development director, Xavier Pion comments: "Firstly, it's good to see the commitment to APG on behalf of Audio-Technica. I am sure that having a dedicated product manager will make a big difference to the profile of APG in Germany. Secondly, I think that Andreas is an excellent choice. We waited a long time to find the right person, and Andreas has all the qualities we were looking for."
