Motorcycles Controlling Team Restructured

 

April 26, 2011 – Corona, CA -
Husqvarna continues to staff up, this time adding Stefan Christman to
the team. "We are pleased to announce that Stefan will join the
Motorcycles Controlling Team based in BMW's Woodcliff Lake
headquarters," says Tomas Valero-Ribes, Department Manager —
Controlling & Credit Management. For better economy of scale,
Husqvarna has been combined with BMW's staff as part of the newly
restructured Motorcycles Controlling Team for both brands.



Christman is a new hire for Husqvarna... he previously spent five years
as a Senior Consultant with Ernst & Young in Columbus, Ohio. Most
recently he served as an Internal Audit Manager for Nationwide
Insurance. In his new role, Stefan will primarily be responsible for
the planning and target achievement for Husqvarna. He will focus on
volume planning, sales allowances, overhead, headcount and overall
profitability.



The fact that he is fluent in both English and Italian should further
facilitate communications between Husqvarna's factory in Varese and
Husqvarna North America. "Stefan will provide a full scope of
controlling expertise and management support for Husqvarna," adds
Valero-Ribes. "He will serve as the key interface partner with
Husqvarna HQ in Italy."
