Paul McDermott is appointed Senior Manager - Commercial Product Sales
J & E Hall has announced what it describes as a major leadership restructure within its commercial refrigeration business, designed to drive regional growth and sharpen customer focus across the UK and Ireland.
Having played an important role in driving substantial sales growth in both condensing units and cellar cooling systems, Senior Manager Tony Twine is stepping back from his UK-wide responsibilities. He will now focus on driving sales activity and market development in Ireland, where the company believes his experience, combined with the support of distribution partner FSW Ireland, will play a vital role in expanding the company’s presence in the region.
Taking over as Senior Manager - Commercial Product Sales is the business area’s former National Sales Manager, Paul McDermott, who has over 22 years of experience within the business. He played a key role in launching the company’s commercial refrigeration product range into the UK market and was instrumental in expanding its national distributor network.
The restructure also coincides with the retirement of Northern Sales Manager Paul O’Brien, above, who has spent his career at J & E Hall working closely with refrigeration contractors and installers across the North of England.
The newly appointed Account Manager for the north, Carl Burton, above, joins with a strong background in the refrigeration and HVAC sector. He will be responsible for driving sales growth across the region, strengthening existing partnerships, and identifying new opportunities.
Also rejoining the team is Kyle Bray, above, who is appointed Account Manager for the South. He will focus on larger key accounts, while also developing new business and strengthening relationships with contractors, consultants and distribution partners.
McDermott said: “Although sorry to see Tony inevitably stepping away, I’m genuinely excited about the team we now have in place. We’ve brought together a group of highly capable and customer-focused professionals who understand the evolving needs of the market.”
