Adler Yacht hires Pototschnik as sales and marketing manager

Adler Yacht, the custom luxury yacht builder, has appointed Philipp Pototschnik to the role of sales and marketing manager as the company prepares for the upcoming boat show season.

Raised in Austria and Italy, Philipp is polyglot with proficiency in six languages, including German, Italian, English, Spanish, French and Russian. His cultural background is perfectly suited to Adler Yacht, a Swiss brand that builds yachts in Italy.

Philipp graduated from the Business University of Vienna and undertook studies at Clark University in Warsaw and Lodz in Poland, as well as the London School of Economics in the UK. His professional experience in sales and marketing is particularly well attuned to digital strategies and social media, which are increasingly vital in today’s rapidly evolving luxury market. He has previously worked in the web marketing and development, renewable energy, health and luxury sectors.

His enthusiastic and forward-thinking attitude are a great fit for Adler Yacht, a brand that has links to the automotive, aviation and marine sectors. “As the Adler Suprema prepares for her second promotional season after the debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2016, we are receiving a growing interest in our cutting-edge, hybrid propulsion yachts. This motivated us to find a dynamic and multitalented professional to assist with our sales and marketing efforts. With his outstanding language skills and understanding of modern marketing and sales approaches, Philipp was a perfect fit,” said Alessandro Barizzi, CEO of Adler International.
