Stephen Pratt will step down as CEO of Kurz Australia at the end of January after spending the last ten years leading and managing the team in Australia and New Zealand. During this period, he was instrumental in growing the business and leading Kurz to market leadership in both countries in surface decoration and embellishment, and introducing the local manufacture of H+M tooling and dies.
Lewis Tessarolo, who has extensive experience in the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries throughout Australia, New Zealand and South East Asia, will take over the CEO position. He brings with him a depth of knowledge and experience in management to continue leading Kurz into what he hopes will be a bright future.
“I’m looking forward to working at Kurz with its innovative and dynamic team,” he said. “I’m excited about the opportunities ahead in thin film coating and continuing the legacy that Stephen has created over the past ten years.”
