Ashley Frischkorn retires after 46 years

On 26 November 2020, Ashley Frischkorn retired after 35 years of service with Ivoclar Vivadent and over 46 years in dentistry in total.

Ash joined Ivoclar Vivadent in November 1985 as a Technical and Clinical Sales Representative based in Queensland. Having previously worked as a Dental Technician, Ash brought a wealth of knowledge to Ivoclar Vivadent and to his customers. He then held various roles over the years, including Product Manager, Senior Product Manager, Executive Manager - Marketing, Queensland State Manager and Head of Technical & Digital, Pacific.

As a result of his exceptional achievements and increased responsibilities, Ash was made a Company Director in January 2016. In recent years Ash assumed the role of Director of Customer Experience. This allowed Ivoclar Vivadent to work with Ash to utilise his wealth of customer insights.

“Ash will leave Ivoclar Vivadent and everyone who he has worked with, richer for knowing him,” said Ken McInnes, Managing Director - Pacific at Ivoclar Vivadent. “He has been very influential in building the great team we have today. He is one of our longest serving employees and has contributed many years of valuable experience to our company. His long-standing commitment is appreciated and will not be forgotten. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Ash for his efforts over the past 35 years”.
