Carlos Ferreira returns to Snell to lead Southern Europe sales

Snell has announced the appointment of Carlos Ferreira as regional sales director for Southern Europe. Ferreira, who from 2002 to 2010 served as regional sales manager for Iberia at Snell (then Snell & Wilcox), returns to the company to manage not only Southern European sales operations, but also those in Latin American markets.

“During his earlier tenure with the company, Carlos was instrumental in establishing our presence in the Iberian and Mediterranean market and developing it to become one of our strongest growth regions,” says Snell global sales director Tim Banks. “He enjoyed similar success at Harmonic, and his new role directing our Southern European and Latin American operation is a tremendous opportunity for Carlos and for Snell.”

Ferreira – who is based in Paris and reports to Banks – spent the past two years as Southern European manager at Harmonic and was previously responsible for the successful development of Snell’s foundations in Spain, Portugal and Greece. Prior to joining Snell, Ferreira served as a field engineer at Grass Valley Group, where he focused on major accounts projects.
