David Catterall, recently made managing director of High End Systems/Flying Pig Systems Europe, comments: "Chris joined High End just after the merger with Flying Pig and has been at the centre of the integration process ever since, in accounts, systems and procurement. He loves the fast pace of our industry and is used to hitting deadlines, having previously cut his teeth in the multi-national publishing industry. He now adds line management responsibilities to his new Operations role."
Phil Mercer was named sales manager for UK and Ireland. Mercer has been with HES/FPS for two years, having worked in logistics - organizing equipment for trade show exhibition stands - and then in tech support. Catterall comments: "It's great to have someone rise through the ranks and show their real potential. In Phil's case, he found us and really wanted to work here, so we gave him his initial break and I am delighted to say that he has never looked back since."
