CRESTRON CONTINUES TO GROW COMMERCIAL TEAM
6/6/2012 6:10 AM EST
Crestron is adding to its already strong sales team with the appointment of Craig Storey to the position of commercial sales manager. Working from Crestron HQ in Cobham, Craig will be building the commercial sector of the company, generating new business, supporting existing customers and working closely with the recently appointed Helen Badger as commercial business development manager.
“I am extremely excited to be joining Crestron and to start my new role,” says Craig Storey. “I applied for the position because I knew Crestron were highly regarded in the industry and when I heard of the opportunity, I couldn’t miss it. I have a good grasp of Crestron’s products and the technical aspects, having worked with them before on projects in previous roles, which I will be able to use to my advantage in developing the commercial aspect of the company. I’m hoping to use my skill to provide a more technical approach to sales, delivering a solution to the customer’s needs.”
Craig has worked in the AV industry for over 6 years. Before joining Crestron, Craig worked as project manager at Impact where he looked after the Deutschebank account and previous to that with Focus 21, starting as a senior service engineer, then moving on to account manager. His previous responsibilities include design, project management and commissioning and managing sales from inception to completion. His experience, technical and logical skillset make him the ideal candidate for this role.
“We are looking forward to Craig joining us at Crestron,” says Phil Breitschadel, UK Sales Manager at Crestron. “It is an exciting time for the commercial team, with the appointment of Helen and now Craig as commercial sales manager. The commercial market is an important part of the business and with Craig’s experience and knowledge he will be a great asset to the team in helping to grow and support it. Craig’s technical background will hold him in great stead when working on specifying for projects, and will mean that he can provide a good level of service throughout the project life.”
