Kudos Showering Solutions has appointed Simon Tate to the role of Area Sales Manager for the Midlands and Southwest of England.

Tate joins the business as one of a new team of Area Sales Managers appointed to support merchants, their showrooms and contractors. He has many years of experience in the plumbing and heating sector, which will assist him greatly in this new role. He will report in to the recently recruited National Sales Manager Tony Russ.

He said: “I’m more than delighted to join the expanding team of great people at Kudos. It is a very well-known and respected brand made in the UK with a great reputation and future potential. So, when the vacancy arose to join Kudos, I jumped at the opportunity.”

Nick Graville, Sales & Marketing Director for Kudos, explained: “Over the past four years our customers have been supported by our 8 strong Retail Support Managers (RSM’s), all of whom provide support to showrooms with technical and installation assistance.

“As we continue to grow there has clearly been a desire for us to provide more sales support, so in addition to the recent appointments for our independent showroom retailers we are building a team of merchant focused Area Sales Managers, who will also work alongside the RSM’s, improving the depth of support and communication with our customer base.  We are delighted that Simon Tate has joined us as part of this new team.”
