Broadcast hire company Presteigne has appointed Stephen Ratcliff as its new head of sales.
He will join the company next month and will work closely with the Hire team, the Projects team and with Presteigne’s international partners in Paris and Hilversum.
Ratcliff was most recently pool manager at EMG, and has over 26 years of experience of working in the industry.
The company said Ratcliff’s appointment is part of its plans for future growth.
Commenting on the appointment, Adrian Young, CEO of Presteigne said “I am really pleased to have been able to bring Stephen on board; it’s rare that you find someone who has Stephen’s range of experience on both the customer and supplier side as well as his depth of knowledge of the rental space. We are very excited to see what Stephen will bring to the table in the coming months.”
Ratcliff added: “I am genuinely excited to be joining Presteigne at a time when the business is benefitting from a sustained period of investment and is well-placed to meet the growing demand of a busy market that has bounced back strongly from the impact of Covid-19. With several large global events coming up, there is no sign of slowing down and Presteigne’s future is looking really bright – it’s a great time to be joining the team here.”
