"We are delighted to have gained the support of Mr. Selvanayagam as managing director. He has been rooted in the ENGEL Group of companies for many years and knows both the Indian and European markets like the back of his hand," as Dr. Stefan Engleder, CEO of the ENGEL Group, emphasises.
Selvanayagam first studied electrical engineering in India and later global sales and marketing in Austria. He joined ENGEL Machinery India in 2005 as a service engineer and was a project manager in the Packaging Business Unit at ENGEL in Austria for many years before returning to his home country of India as Sales Director last year.
He is taking over the management position from Frank Schuster, who headed the subsidiary on an interim basis following the retirement of Jitendra Devlia. As the Regional President METAI, Frank Schuster will continue to work in close collaboration with Stalinjose Selvanayagam.
