BLM has enhanced its external field team by appointing Hayley Cotterill as north west area manager and re-appointing David Gardner as south west area manager.

Ms Cotterill’s previous roles include a six-year spell with Schneider Electric as an account manager looking after key electrical product distributors. She joins BLM’s sales team working with builders’ merchants and contractors to help grow the business and increase the awareness of BLM’s product range across Midlands and north west England.

Mr Gardner re-joins BLM after a short spell away and will be working closely with builders’ merchants and contractors across south west England to maintain existing relationships and develop new ones, driving the brand forward.

Mark Jones, UK sales manager at BLM, said: “We are delighted to welcome both Hayley and Dave to BLM. Hayley comes with good experience of account management in the electrical industry and although the builders’ merchant industry is new to her, we are sure she will be very popular with her customers and do an excellent job for BLM.

“David is a familiar face having worked for us for eight years before taking a short break away. He has built fantastic relationships with his customers over the years, and I am sure they will be as pleased to have him back as we are.”
