Sonardyne International UK has named Graham Brown as its new sales and marketing director.

With immediate effect, Graham is responsible for leading the sales and marketing strategies across the entire company including oil and gas, ocean science, defence and maritime security market sectors, Sonardyne informed.

Graham has worked for Sonardyne for over 14 years and during that time he has held a number of senior positions within the organisation.

He will continue to serve as a director of Sonardyne Wavefront, the sonar research company acquired in 2007.

“The opportunity to drive the growth of the business and expand the company’s presence world-wide is one that I am very excited about,” said Graham.

Sonardyne’s managing director, John Ramsden, said, “Graham’s technical knowledge and international commercial experience will be invaluable to Sonardyne as we look to navigate our way through the current market challenges, ready for an upturn in our core markets and expansion into new ones.”
