Clear-Com announced the appointment of Brian Grahn as market outreach manager of the Americas and Ben Turnwell as business development manager for EMEA live.

The company said these appointments emphasize its focus on building closer relationships with customers, consultants and partners.

Grahn has been with the company since 2022, but will now lead consultant-focused outreach and technical engagement across markets, including themed entertainment and cruise lines. He’ll work across sales, marketing and product management.

He previously served as regional sales manager of the Southwest U.S., where he led account strategy.

“I am very much looking forward to building deeper connections with consultants, shaping how we tell our story in the market, and helping deliver communication solutions for some truly complex and creative environments,” Grahn said.

Kris Koch, director of sales for North America at Clear-Com, said this about Grahn:

“Brian has a unique ability to connect the technical and human sides of what we do,” Koch said. “He understands how systems are used in the field, but also how to communicate that value clearly. That’s critical as we continue to engage more closely with consultants and end users.”

Turnwell will lead business development across the EMEA live production sector in his new role. This will include working with production companies, venues, promoters and other stakeholders to support new opportunities and sustainable business development.

He will bring his background in touring, theater and large-scale live productions to the job, where he will be based in the United Kingdom.

“Ben brings a practical understanding of how our customers operate in high-pressure, real-world environments,” ChrisWillis, vice president of worldwide sales at Clear-Com, said. “He’s focused on building trust and long-term partnerships, which is exactly how this industry works and how Clear-Com continues to grow globally.”
