Stockholm, Sweden, 15 November 2022 – KAMIC Group, a leading supplier of technical products and services across a broad range of industries worldwide, has appointed Stefan Ruuth as Sales Manager for its global Magnetics business area. Reporting to Magnetics Head, Dan Phelan, Ruuth is tasked with shaping a newly unified sales team across the business area’s three companies: ETAL, SIGA and Talema.
The appointment marks a return to the business for Ruuth who previously worked at ETAL Group for 16 years, first as an engineer and then as Sales Manager, before leaving in 2017 to join a large organisation in the fan sector. At ETAL, he was instrumental in developing the company’s planar magnetics product line which is now well known in the market. He has a degree in Civil Engineering and a Masters in electronics.
“Stefan has an excellent record of building strong technical sales teams, maintaining and developing margins and driving growth that exceeds the market,” commented Dan Phelan, President of ETAL. “He really understands our sector and personifies the ethos of high quality and performance that underpins what we do. This is an exciting time for us and I’m looking forward to working with Stefan to maximise the new opportunities afforded by our two significant recent acquisitions (SIGA and Talema).”
“It really is a great time to be rejoining the company,” agreed Stefan Ruuth. “There is huge market demand at the moment, particularly in the renewable energy and vehicle electrification sectors. We have excellent products in these areas as well as direct representation in the world’s most significant economies. We’re anticipating lots more growth in the coming months.”
