As part of PWS’ strategy for significant growth over the course of the next few years, the company has announced two senior appointments. Kevin Gay has been promoted to operations director and Andrew Buckingham to IT manager.

As operations director, Kevin is responsible for all aspects of IT and logistics. With over 500 orders dispatched from PWS each day, slick operations are critical to the smooth running of the business. Kevin joined PWS in 1988 and has managed the marketing, worksurfaces and IT and logistics departments, developing a deep understanding of how the business functions across all disciplines.

Andrew Buckingham steps up to the position of IT manager, following nine years as software engineer at PWS. Andrew has extensive and valuable systems experience, most recently managing and developing enhancements to TradeZone – the company’s online ordering system.

Andrew Elenor, managing director at PWS, comments: “We have ambitious plans for the business and these senior and strategically important appointments underline our commitment to ensure, as the company grows, we maintain the high standards of service our customers have grown accustomed to.

“Kevin has an unrivalled knowledge of the business and no one is better placed to bring in-depth experience and be such a great asset to the board. An already-established and valued member of the IT department, it gives me great pleasure to welcome Andrew to the management team.”
