SAINT-AUGUSTIN-DE-DESMAURES, Quebec – Arcofab announces that David Bond has joined the team as a sales representative. Bond brings with him international events industry experience and contact network which he has developed over the last 22 years in the business.
Bond started his career in the warehouses of Sound Specialist Inc. (Moncton, NB) and Allstar Show Industries Ltd. (Calgary, AB) in addition to working as a freelance touring audio engineer. After various tours within Canada his experience base expanded to include international theatre tours, arena concerts, conventions, music festivals and exhibitions. His focus shifted from audio to event production and tour management. In 2002 Bond relocated to England and began working with world renowned music stars and recording artists as production manager, tour manager, audio engineer and promoter’s representative for arena festivals and special events within UK and Europe.
Bond then found a new opportunity with a leading British staging, seating, structures and rigging provider in Star Events Group Ltd., moving from a project coordination role to Star Rigging Division Manager. Star Rigging’s service was awarded the Total Production International Award 2010 for Favorite Rigging Company under his management. Their client base included venues such as Wembley Arena, Cardiff Millennium Stadium, Manchester Arena and Arena and Convention Centre Liverpool, for which Bond managed contract services.
Arcofab products had appeared on various projects on Bond’s desk while at Star Events including Celine Dion and Britney Spears tours as well as Cirque du Soleil Quidam shows. In addition to managing Star Rigging division, Bond held a position on the Star Events Group Health and Safety Committee, Sales team and the PLASA National Rigging Advisory Group. These experiences brought a new understanding of rigging, engineering, metal fabrication and the design of truss.
Upon returning to Canada in 2011, Bond sought to continue on the same path within the events industry. The synergy between Arcofab and David was instantly apparent and the understanding of their common goals was obvious.
