06/06/2013 Fortress Technology (Europe) Ltd
Recent investment by Fortress Technology (tel: 01295 256266; www.fortresstechnology.co.uk) in its business development / sales development team is a further reflection of the organisation's confidence in its metal detection systems and its strategy to grow the company throughout the UK and Europe.The first of four new employees to join the Fortress family, Donna Brown takes on the role of Sales Co-ordinator for UK & Eire, working in the Logistics Department to ensure that all customer orders are processed efficiently.
Fiona Wilkins has been appointed in a Business Development role responsible for covering the Midlands and North. With previous business development skills honed at BAPP Industrial Supplies, Fiona has all the necessary expertise and credentials to take Fortress out to new customers in these regions.
Having worked extensively in both sales and recruitment, Mark Lester is also well placed to develop customer relationships in his new Business Development role with Fortress Technology. In fact, Mark worked closely with Fortress during his time at Plus One, when he successfully introduced 13 people to the company after it relocated to larger premises and expanded into manufacturing.
Mark's new role is to continue to develop business in the South, working with both new and existing clients, selling the features and advantages of Fortress metal detection systems and offering them a consultative service to ensure that they are given the right solution and customer service back-up for their needs.
The final member of the team, Kevin Shackell is the Business Development Engineer responsible for Fortress OEMs. An extremely experienced sales person with strong customer relationship skills, Kevin has worked across a range of markets, all of which had a definite business development focus. A highly motivated individual, he has also worked on a self-employed basis in direct sales, and was a member of the sales team for Compass Packaging.
Says Fortress Sales Director, Phil Brown: "These four new recruits are enthusiastic and hard-working and we are confident that they will fit comfortably in to the Fortress family and will help to further strengthen our already successful sales and business development team.â€
