Two Szerelmey Appointments Strengthen Development Team

In a rapidly changing market stonework specialist Szerelmey, has expanded its business development team with two new appointments; they follow Szerelmey's diversification into prefabricated cladding, stone flooring and stone ceiling systems.

The appointments are also intended to support the company's strategy of continued expansion in its traditional markets - new build masonry, stone façade design and internal fit outs.

Richard Piggott takes on the key role of Business Development Manager looking after the sales and marketing of Szerelmey's growing range of products and services. Previously with Domus Façades Ltd, he has 12 years' experience within the façade industry and now brings a practical approach to developing new relationships - based on technical skills established from a variety of management roles working for specialist cladding and glazing subcontractors. Richard has an excellent record of implementing successful business growth strategies.

John MacEachin, Director of Szerelmey commented: "We see the current market providing fresh opportunities if one is willing to adapt; we've seen a high level of demand for our new prefabricated systems in the past eighteen months and our strategy is to keep expanding. These latest appointments will help us support this strategy and achieve our vision."
