2019 has once again been a busy year for the Quasar team. We’ve undertaken projects for clients across New Zealand and Australia and we have enjoyed creating customised systems for a variety of clients across diverse sectors such as manufacturing, accommodation, electricity and retail. We were also delighted to receive a Schneider Electric EcoXpert Technical Innovation Award, for our Rapid Capture and Control (RCC) application.

Quasar is excited to welcome John to our team. John joins us in the role of Business Development / Technical Sales. He will be responsible for business development and account management for selected Quasar clients across New Zealand and internationally.
 
John brings many years of experience with mission critical solutions. As an award-winning international business development operator, John is passionate about taking solutions developed in Christchurch to the world. Coming from an engineering background and working through to senior sales and marketing roles, John is dedicated to putting the end user at the centre of all aspects of solutions provision. This focus has been sharpened in working closely with organisations all over the globe.
 
Richard Schwass, our Managing Director says, “I am really excited about John joining our team and I am certain that our customers are going to enjoy interacting with him. John joins us at a real turning point for the company as we increase our focus on delivering state of the art energy management solutions to the markets we serve.”
 
Prior to joining Quasar, John worked in business development management for Mimomax Wireless, working with power utilities delivering truly innovative communications solutions for protection, SCADA and telemetry. Previously, John has held a number of senior roles, managing strategic customers and opening new markets with Tait Communications.

Quasar Systems has welcomed Richard Fry to the role of Operations Manager. Richard is based at Quasar’s Christchurch office and will be responsible for leading all operational aspects of the business, including the maintenance of contractual relationships and internal systems.

Quasar moved over Christmas to brand-new purpose designed premises. We are loving the new space and the opportunities it now gives us to do what we do best - innovating integrated solutions that deliver intelligent data for energy quality, management, and control. Perhaps we will see you here at some stage soon to show you around if you are in town?
