February 10, 2025

Pilz Automation Safety Canada L.P. is pleased to announce the promotion of Marcus Graham to the role of National Channel Manager.

Marcus will continue his role as Senior Technical Sales Representative at Pilz for the Southwestern Ontario region, while also taking on the responsibility of overseeing nationwide partnerships with distributors and integrators. In this expanded role, Marcus will not only drive sales in Southwestern Ontario but also strengthen relationships with our valued partners across Canada.

“Marcus is the ideal person to further improve our relationship with our partners, he accumulated a lot of experience as well as worked for distributors in his previous life. I am confident that he will drive our distribution business to the next level. My double role as CEO of Pilz Canada and Regional VP of South and North America left me with little time to nurture our partnerships in the past year”, says Andreas Sobotta.

“I am thrilled to take on this responsibility and further strengthen our relationships with our valued channel partners. Distribution will be crucial to our future growth, and by working together, we can offer our customers the best value possible,” says Marcus Graham.

Marcus joined Pilz Canada in 2017. Since then, he has become an indispensable team member, significantly boosting regional sales and contributing to the overall growth of the company.

Pilz is a global expert in industrial safety & security for human, machine and the environment. Supported by their corporate headquarters in Ostfildern, Germany, Pilz Canada has provided customer-oriented automation solutions since 2013.
