KTM ANZ MD’s handed expanded responsibilities
Managing Directors Jan Nobis and Anna Bail of the KTM Group Australia and New Zealand will be handling wider responsibilities, following the retirement of former Managing Director of Sales, Marketing and Motorsports Brad Hagi, who has been with KTM Group for 13 years.
Following an extensive career within the motorcycle industry, Brad spent the previous two years in the managing director role based in Australia, concluding a tenure of 13 years within the KTM Group. He officially retired from the group on 31 December 2022.
Moving forward, both Jan and Anna will take over responsibilities previously held by Brad. This will see Jan across Sales, Marketing, Network Development, Operations and PG&A, while Anna will oversee Finance, Legal, HR, Logistics, Customer Service and Motorsports.
Jan held the role of WP Suspension Managing Director in Austria prior to relocating to Australia at the beginning of 2022 and he has over eight years of experience working within the KTM Group.
