Mannerhill leaves Namco Bandai

After working at Namco Bandai since 2009, Johan Mannerhill, the Nordic Commerical Director will move on to Warner Bros Entertainment Nordic.

The Chairman has been lucky enough to be headhunted by the new Managing Director, Stefan Lampinen. Mannerhill will continue to be a Commerical Director. His background in sales and logistics, accrued from his career starting out at Electronic Arts in 1998 and continuing at Namco Bandai in October 2009, will serve him well.

“Johan is used to my tempo and leadership style, we have worked together before and he knows all about start-ups and building. One of his tasks will be focusing on the digital infrastructure for both film and games,” claims Stefan Lampinen.

With so many new releases revealed for Namco Bandai in the future, will he regret it? Perhaps not…
