L-R: James Brace, Emma Jervis, Simon Baker, Jayney Bell, Ross Mc Givern, Alex Keighley and Paul Armstrong.
UK - After the move from Waterloo Road, the Stage Electrics London team have settled into their new unit at 175 Long Lane SE1. Jayney Bell has joined the team as branch coordinator after working in the West End and being on tour for the last 12 years. Bell has an impressive resume with appointments such as chief LX for such shows as The Play What I Wrote - UK Tour, Godspell - UK Tour , deputy chief for Fosse European and Japanese tour and deputy chief, Lion King- West End. Alex has joined the London branch as hire manager after five years working in Cambridge in a similar role. Keighley felt the challenge to take the London branches hire forward was exciting and has made big differences already. Simon Baker has been promoted to assistant project manager, working closely with the production department based in Bristol. Baker has been with the London branch for a little over two years as technician for the retail market and helping with hire.

Ross Mcgivern joined Stage Electrics full time as warehouse technician following completion of his college course. Mcgivern was no stranger to the company as he had spent holidays working with both the Cambridge and London branches over the last few years. Paul Armstrong was the very first employee of Stage Electrics some 24 years ago. During this time he has held most positions in Stage Electrics from driver through to transport manager, and from customer service representative through to branch manager. Armstrong has joined the team as operations manager and will be helping the customer service team.

James Brace has joined as customer service representative. Brace was previously with The London Dungeons as head of lighting and sound. Emma Jervis has also joined as customer service representative. After graduating from her stage management course at the Northbrook Theatre, Jervis worked for Worthing theatres for a time before retuning to the Northbrook as theatre assistant.

Chris Patton, business development manager for West End and touring theatre has recently re-located to London. Patton feels he is much more on hand to help customers now and is only a cab ride away. Stuart Miller, account handler, also transferred to London from Bristol. Still very much working with the production department, Miller has maintained his existing customer base as 90% of his clients are based within 20 miles of London.
