More Changes at Lion Nathan

By Andrew Starke

Lion Nathan has announced that Damien Mori, currently regional director South Australia / Northern Territory, has been appointed to the role of regional director Victoria.

The move follows last weeks reshuffle which saw changes made in New South Wales and Western Australia.

Mori brings more than 12 years experience to the position, garnered in a range of roles across sales, brand marketing, channel planning and activation, and account management within the FMCG and liquor industries.

He joined Lion Nathan in January 2003 as field marketing manager for Victoria and has previously held the roles of national market activation director and field sales manager in Queensland, prior to his present position.

“It has been an incredibly rewarding experience working with the South Australian team and watching the business go from strength to strength,” said Mori.

“Working with our customers in various markets over the last couple of years has given me a strong understanding and appreciation of the diversity in the marketplace and the unique challenges the trade and industry faces.”

Jake Parkinson, currently field sales manager South Australian Brewing (SAB), will take over the role of regional director South Australia / Northern Territory.

Parkinson joined Lion Nathan in December 2001 as a key accounts manager for SAB and during his career has held the roles of group accounts manager and sales activation and operations manager, both at SAB.

Both appointments are effective from 1 March.
