I’ll be looking to ensure that we continue to offer our top quality customer service backed up by excellent technical advice and reliable delivery.”

Lorraine also has an established client base and a familiarity with the Devon area, both of which have helped her settle into her new position. “We are delighted to have someone with Lorraine’s experience and local knowledge join the team,” comments David Bailey, Sales Director at Cembrit. “She is already embracing the Cembrit ethos and her ideas and initiative are exactly what we are looking for in the role.”
