Travis Perkins Managed Services has appointed Rosie Wise as its new Managing Director.

Wise joined Travis Perkins plc in 2021 and brings a wealth of experience from across the merchanting and building materials industries. Most recently, she was appointed Managing Director for Benchmarx Kitchens and Joinery, a role Wise will retain going forward.

With a strong background in the merchanting and building materials industries, Wise has previously held the roles of Commercial Director of Civils, Timber and Heavyside, and Group Trading Director for Timber & Kitchens, Plumbing & Heating, and Timber & Joinery within Travis Perkins. Her customer-focused approach will drive the next phase of growth for Travis Perkins Managed Services.

Wise takes from Ben Todd, who has left the business to pursue other opportunities.

Wise said: “I’m extremely proud to have been appointed Managing Director of Travis Perkins Managed Services, which has a fantastic reputation for delivering for our customers, from large-scale national and SME housebuilders right through to social housing providers. 

“This is a genuinely exciting time within the sector, with legislative changes on the way that will have significant impacts on the industry.  I’m really looking forward to the opportunity to work alongside our incredibly talented team in supporting our customers through these changes.

“The work that our customers deliver means that people have safe, warm and dry homes, and our team is always working hard to find ways to increase efficiencies through our services and digital solutions. 

“I’m excited to further strengthen our relationships with housing associations, local authorities and housebuilders across the country, and demonstrate the depth of the Managed Services offering.”
