Hal & Laura Reisiger


Laura & Hal Reisiger
Laura and I thought it fitting to use a photo from our last memorable trip to Epernay.  Married 26 years with three great kids, their primary residence is Southern California, while Hal’s office as CEO of Cosworth Group Holdings Limited is in the UK. When asked where he is “located," Hal replies “wherever employees and customers are located."  Laura is a passionate certified interior designer whose practice emphasizes staging residential real estate.  When Laura isn’t decorating, she’s shopping!  When Hal isn’t working, he is mountain biking or trying to find time to restore his ’65 Pontiac GTO!
Hal Reisiger
Chief Executive Officer 
Inspired by the incredible brand, employee commitment, and core competencies, Hal Reisiger accepted the appointment of Chief Executive Officer of Cosworth Group Holdings Ltd. in October 2013.  Previously Mr. Reisiger was President of the group's North American companies, where he was instrumental in securing two of the largest automotive OEM contracts in the company's history.
Mr. Reisiger has a proven track record of growing public and private businesses through the development of high performance teams, global sales channel development, innovative new product development, and improved operational effectiveness.
He began his career as an application engineer before progressing to senior sales, marketing and operations positions at Haskel International, a manufacturer of pumps, compressors and systems for the automotive, electronics and oil & gas markets. Mr. Reisiger began his involvement in UK manufacturing in 1983 when Haskel acquired Olin Energy Systems in Sunderland.
In 2000 Mr. Reisiger was recruited as President of Burkert Contromatic, a manufacturer of valves, sensors and automation systems for the medical device, water treatment and food processing. Under his direction a new organization structure and sales channel strategy were implemented resulting in a 60% increase in revenue and a 175% increase in profits.
From 2003-2007 he was President of Enhanced Vision Systems, a manufacturer of digital magnification systems for the legally blind and visually impaired. Under Mr. Reisiger's leadership revenue increased 3.5X and net income 6X, during which time lean manufacturing processes were implemented and the company launched its first subsidiary in Derbyshire, England.
Immediately prior to joining Cosworth, Mr. Reisiger was President and CEO of Fast Forward Video, a manufacturer of high definition digital video recorders. During his tenure the company secured an Apple license for their commercial video codec and revenue doubled.
Mr. Reisiger is a graduate from the Anderson Executive School of Management at UCLA in Los Angeles, California.
"I believe Cosworth excels at moving beyond prototype, realising the ambitions of our customers on the road and the racetrack. We are proud to work alongside some of the world's leading automotive brands to enable performance vehicles to go further and faster, using smarter technology."
