Imperial Bathrooms Announces New Board Appointments
Leading British bathroom manufacturer, Imperial Bathrooms, has further strengthened its management team following the internal appointment of three Board Directors - Robin Wright, James Stevenson and David Leary. As well as harnessing their considerable industry and management experience, the appointments underline the accelerated growth that the company continues to enjoy.
Managing Director at Imperial Bathrooms, Antonio Garrido, believes that the new directors bring a high level of experience and personal enthusiasm to their roles and will be an invaluable asset to the company’s future growth.
"The appointments are illustrative of the company’s ongoing commitment to provide exceptional standards of service for its global customer base and are equally reflective of its ambitious expansion strategies," he said. "At a time when many other bathroom manufacturers are reducing their workforce, the performance that Imperial Bathrooms has enjoyed over the last two years has actually resulted in the creation of new jobs within both its warehouse and ceramic divisions. Plus, the rigorous product design and marketing initiatives that we have in place will hopefully serve to continue this trend. "
Robin Wright - now Operations Director - has been with the company for almost 20 years and was in fact the first employee at Imperial Bathrooms. Having assumed various management roles over the years in Sales, Distribution, Operations, Quality Control and Technical Training, Robin was instrumental in establishing the stringent quality standards for which Imperial Bathrooms is today renowned.
Commercial Director, James Stevenson, has been with Imperial Bathrooms for 12 years and is a Chartered Engineer. As well as managing the company’s internal and external supply chain, James is responsible for production planning and technical support. He was previously Commercial Manager.
Former Company Secretary at Imperial Bathrooms, David Leary now assumes the position of Financial Director. Previously Financial Controller for 15 years at Houghton PLC and its subsidiary companies in the oil and lubrication Industry, David brings a wealth of experience to his new role.
