Gledhill has appointed Neil Thompson as sales director, bringing over 20 years of experience in the UK plumbing and heating manufacturing sector to the Blackpool-based business.
Most recently he held the position of sales director at both OSO Hotwater and Heatrae Sadia, Megaflo.
Neil Thompson takes over the role from Neil Overton, who spent four years with the company and will remain in the business into 2022 to support the transition.
He said: “Gledhill has achieved enviable growth over recent years and established excellent partnerships with merchants and buying groups. I’m delighted to be joining the company at such an exciting time for the industry, particularly with the shift to renewable technology solutions across HVAC to support the government’s Net Zero 2050 target.
“I’m looking forward to working alongside key stakeholders across the industry again to establish our position as the UK’s market leader for hot water cylinders and develop a strategy to further increase demand and support our loyal installers. It’s a privilege to work for a company so committed to continuous innovation across its product range and I look forward to seeing where this takes us.”
