Career

Since his earliest age, Stefano Macaluso had been immersed in the world of watches: he has seen his father Luigi Macaluso at work as President of the Sowind Group that incorporates a "Manufacture" and the two watchmaking brands Girard-Perregaux and JeanRichard.[1] Surrounded by the technical and aesthetic expertise that has made the luxury Swiss watch-making industry so famous, he has acquired wide experience in this sector to add to his extensive professional know-how.

Since 2003 he has lived in La Chaux-de-Fonds in the Swiss canton of Neuchâtel. There, he has successively held professional positions in strategy marketing, product creation and development, industrial management and in the Sales Department Direction for Girard-Perregaux. Among his achievements, he has coordinated the development of the Girard-Perregaux retail concept, from the first flagship store open in Gstaad in 2004 to the newest boutiques opened in New York and China. Passionate for design, he puts his architect background to good use through his involvement in the product creation.

Since November 2010, Stefano Macaluso has been appointed general manager for Girard-Perregaux.[2]
