Already an employee, Rene Joppi has taken up a key role in ensuring Mackwell achieve success going forward and will be relocating to the UK to do so, having previously lived in Dubai while he was running Mackwell’s Middle East office.
Success and growth there in just two years at the helm have seen him promoted. He will still have responsibilities in the Middle East but will also take the lead on global commercial sales, product management, research and development and marketing, all key areas for the company’s prosperity.
He said: "My vision to make Mackwell the go to place for emergency lighting. When someone thinks about emergency lighting, we want them to think about Mackwell and we are really focussed on this. This includes having the right products, the right approach to the market and to be a pillar of knowledge and training.
