GLEN SEALEY

Glen Sealey has been appointed as General Manager for Maserati in Australia and New Zealand, succeeding Edward Butler who has held the position since the franchise moved to European Automotive Imports in 2005, and who will now move to run the European Automotive Imports-owned ‘Ferrari Maserati Sydney’ dealership.

“Ed Butler has transformed Maserati’s position in the Australian and New Zealand markets, making it the most successful brand in its market sector and the benchmark for premium customer care,” says Glen Sealey. “It is, therefore, both an honour and pleasure to take over a brand that is both a legend and in such health. I look forward to further developing and strengthening Maserati’s position in our markets, starting with the launch of the GranCabrio later this year.”

Following completion of his university education Glen Sealey started his career with European Automotive Imports parent company, Ateco Automotive Pty Ltd as marketing coordinator in 1994.

Two years later Mr Sealey joined Hyundai Australia as Regional Sales Manager for southern New South Wales before expanding his geographical coverage to all of New South Wales with his new role as Regional Manager for Audi in 1988, a role that encompassed all areas of dealership performance. His first role that covered the whole country came in 2002 when he joined Peugeot Automobiles Australia as Dealer Business Manager.

Glen Sealey joined European Automotive Imports in 2008 as Dealer Operations Manager for Ferrari Australia and New Zealand, an extensive role on both sides of the Tasman that included the management of both new and Ferrari Approved Used car sales, dealership sales and management training, vehicle ordering and delivery, pricing and product positioning and budget control. Mr Sealey (37) was born in Condobolin, New South Wales where his family own the local Ford dealership and lives in Sydney with his wife and two children.
