Prior to 2000, Peter was a sales director at Show Lighting Australia, responsible for Clay Paky sales in the Australasian region. Since then he has been sales manager at Selecon's Queensland distributor, The Production Shop. A classically trained musician, McKenzie served his electrical apprenticeship before combining his love for the performing arts and his technology and business interests. "With his considerable commercial acumen and industry experience Peter's appointment reinforces Selecon's commitment to the Australian performance lighting industry," says Selecon's managing director Jeremy Collins.
McKenzie takes over the position from David Ferguson at next month's Entech trade show. Ferguson leaves the Selecon position to concentrate on developing the market for his invention, the 'Fergo', the plastic image technology www.fergo.com.au which so successfully demonstrates and exploits the heat management and advanced optics of Selecon's Pacific range.
