The Veka UK Group has welcomed Lauren Wilcox to the team as commercial development manager, for the North and Midlands.
Lauren joins the commercial department of the systems supplier, from a previous position as Grosvenor Windows’ contracts manager.
“I’ve worked with The Veka UK Group for a number of years as a customer and I’ve always admired the way the company operates,” Lauren explained. “I’ve been in the window and wider construction industry for ten years and I felt ready to progress with my career, building on this experience.
“I’ve really enjoyed working for Grosvenor for the last eight years in a number of different roles. I started as installation administrator before becoming installation manager, then office manager, and then progressed to become full contracts manager where I assisted in the general running of the business.
“Where better to develop my professional strengths than with the world’s biggest and best PVC-U extrusion company?
“I love learning, and applying new skills to various challenges. I’m very excited to have joined The Veka UK Group and I’m looking forward to building relationships with new and existing commercial clients. I’ll be attending meetings and getting to know contractors, architects, consultants, fabricators and installers, where I’ll be able to discuss how The Veka UK Group can assist them with a host of products and services to suit the exact requirements of their current projects.”
Richard Garland, head of commercial sales, said: “It’s a pleasure to welcome Lauren to the commercial team. She’s already proven to be a very knowledgeable, keen and enthusiastic member of the team. I have no doubt she will become an even more valuable asset to the company as our market share continues to grow in this specialist sector.”
