As ARN reports, OKI Data has appointed Tony Grima as sales director of Australia, replacing Greg Mikaelian who re-joined Acer in June.

Grima comes on-board with more than 15 years of management and sales experience, having most recently been general manager of Fuji Xerox Printers in Australia.

During this time, Grima led the implementation of a new channel partner program, reconfigured the vendor’s sales pipeline and improved service levels.

“Tony’s skill set and experience of working in business development in fast-growth companies will be invaluable as we continue to accelerate our revenue expansion,” said Alex Kawamura managing director of Australia and New Zealand at OKI Data.

Based in Sydney, Grima is responsible for leading OKI’s sales momentum, including channel partner development, distribution strategy and revenue growth.

“It’s very exciting to join OKI with its passionate community of channel partner and customer advocates, breakthrough technology and revenue momentum,” Grima added.

“I look forward to the journey ahead and helping OKI achieve strong and mutually rewarding results for and in collaboration with our channel partners.”

Alongside Fuji Xerox Printers, Grima was managing director and CEO at Oldfields, an ASX-listed importer and manufacturer of a range of products which include scaffolding and painting accessories.

Furthermore, Grima also held several management positions over a period of 13 years at global materials science and manufacturing company, Avery Dennison Corporation.
