By creating solid relationships with key brokers and TPIs, the company believes it can provide the best possible solutions for its private and public sector customers and help to drive engagement in the new, open water market.
Bill Clarke, Sales Director at SES Business Water, said:
“We are delighted to welcome Filippo to the team. Third party intermediaries have built solid relationships with their business customers and will be crucial to encouraging more organisations to take advantage of the open water market. When the water market opens in April, we want to ensure that we have the expertise to exceed the expectations of our customer base as it grows – taking on new appointments like Filippo is just one of the ways that we’ll be doing this.”
