David is very much looking forward to the challenge ahead: “AluK is a really exciting, dynamic business with huge ambitions for growth across Ireland and the UK. I’m delighted to be joining the team alongside Steven Helsen and Russell Yates and can’t wait to start getting in front of fabricators and sharing the AluK message.
“AluK is a global group so there are significant resources behind the brand, and we have one of the most exciting product development programmes in the industry. Over and above that though, this is a business which puts the customer at the heart of everything we do, and which recognises that we grow only by helping our customers grow.”
From his base in Kildare, David will be looking after customers throughout Ireland. He added: “After many years based largely behind a desk, it will be great to be out and about meeting customers face to face again, strengthening existing relationships and building many new ones.
“AluK is also exhibiting at BAU in January and at the FIT Show in May - and I’m hoping to see lots of familiar faces at both.”
Russell Yates, AluK’s Managing Director commented: “With David on board, AluK is now in a fantastic position to deliver on our long held ambitions in Ireland. His knowledge and experience are second to none and he has the full backing of our R&D, technical, sales and commercial teams.”
