Hisense marketer joins PSA board

IT People - People

Andre Iannuzzi, Hisense Australia's head of marketing, has been appointed to the board of directors of Product Stewardship Australia (PSA).

Hisense, a PSA member, backs the organisation's efforts to establish recycling schemes for electronic products.

"As the father of a young son, I am acutely aware that it is necessary, socially desirable and economically responsible to collect and recycle e-waste," said Iannuzzi.

"It is time to act now and I am delighted to be able to assist as a PSA director," he added.

Iannuzzi started in the consumer electronics industry at JB Hi Fi, and worked at other retailers including Harvey Norman, The Good Guys, and Retravision before joining Hisense in 2006.

The PSA and the Consumer Electronics Suppliers Association have been working on a TV recycling scheme since 2000.
