SEVENOAKS: Alpha has appointed James Kimber as its new technical sales manager for the south of England.

Based in Bournemouth, Mr Kimber will cover the counties of Hampshire, Berkshire, Dorset and Wiltshire, going to both merchant and installer customers.

Working as a self-employed installer for the last 12 years has given him a strong foundation for being a technical manager. “I’ve worked with boilers for years. Alpha has such a strong product, especially with the new InTec range coming out.

“Being able to go into merchants and visit installers and talk to them about the scope of the Alpha range is something I’m really looking forward to,” said Mr Kimber.
