Cembrit, the roof slate and cladding specialist, is pleased to welcome John Haycock to the position of Regional Sales Manager for the Midlands. Pitched roofing products will be John’s main focus and he will be looking to expand sales of Cembrit’s market-leading products throughout the region.

John brings with him 16 years of experience in the roofing industry, which has given him a well rounded knowledge of pitched roofing products and associated specification issues. This knowledge sits nicely with his familiarity of the Midlands area and the local business environment.

“I’m looking forward to starting my new role at Cembrit and the exciting challenges ahead,” explains John. “Cembrit is one of the leading names in natural and fibre cement slates and what really swung it for me to want to join was the company's commitment to customer satisfaction and service. The strong team work, combined with the marketing and technical back up, made my decision to accept the opportunity extremely easy.”

“John is an experienced sales professional and will be an asset to our growing team,” says David Bailey, Sales Director at Cembrit. “Previous positions he has held have given him an excellent understanding of slates, their applications and the associated specification issues. I look forward to him building on that knowledge with our support and comprehensive range of products.”
