website maker Glass packaging manufacturer Beatson Clark has strengthened its sales team with the appointment of two experienced Business Development Managers.
Kimberley Wilkinson is now looking after the north of the UK for Beatson Clark while Andy Terry is responsible for the south of England and Wales.
Between them they are working closely with the in-house marketing team and UK Sales Manager Aaron Broadley to expand Beatson Clark’s customer portfolio.
Kimberley Wilkinson has worked in the packaging industry for eight years across a range of markets including cosmetics, health and beauty, home fragrance and pharmaceuticals. She has primarily worked for packaging sourcing and distribution companies on sales and NPD projects, across a range of materials and decoration finishes.
“It’s a wonderful opportunity to join Beatson Clark,” Kimberley said. “Working for a UK-based manufacturer is an exciting step for me. The company has a fantastic reputation in the industry and with the recent investment into our new on-site decoration plant it’s a great time to have joined the team.
“I’ve been given a very warm welcome and great induction training, all good for personal development and in preparation for flying the flag and being out and about meeting customers face to face which I really enjoy.”
Andy Terry worked across several different industries before moving into packaging and labelling in 2016. He began his career in the industry working as business development manager for the UK beer, wine, spirit and pharmaceutical sectors.
“Working at Beatson Clark has been brilliant so far and I absolutely love it,” Andy said. “I’ve been made to feel like one of the family. The culture, development opportunities and direction of the company are very exciting.
“I’m very passionate about our new decorating plant; it gives us the chance to work with brands that might not be looking for a new glass supplier just yet but might have a need for glass decoration. It also opens new and exciting markets for us, such as cosmetics and home-ware.”
Aaron Broadley is excited to further develop Beatson Clark’s experienced sales team, saying, “We’ve now got a very strong sales and marketing team in place and our Business Development Managers are already bringing in some fantastic sales opportunities.”
