Showerwall has appointed Chris Phillips as area sales manager for the midlands, who has affirmed that the company “is still here and that we very much mean business” after its acquisition by Bathroom Brands Group last year.
In his new role, Phillips will manage and develop customer relationships across the region. He has over 20 years of experience in the building industry across bathroom installation, merchant showrooms and distribution sales.
After spending 15 years managing a property business specialising in KBB refurbishments, he undertook showroom management and sales roles for both City Plumbing and Claygate Distribution.
Discussing his new role, Phillips said: “I was already familiar with Showerwall, and have long been a fan of wall panelling, having specified and managed its installation in many homes during my time in property maintenance. I have full trust in the product and have never experienced a single problem, from fitting right through to aftersales.
“Following my time in showroom sales, I was keen to move into the field, especially for a manufacturer, and the opportunity with Showerwall was ideal.
“I have real faith in the Showerwall brand, and the backing of Bathroom Brands Group puts the business in a really strong position. I’m excited to be part of this new chapter and to be telling customers that Showerwall is still here and that we very much mean business.
“Connecting with customers and sharing all the recent developments with them has already been exciting, and there’s lots more to come as we move through the year – this is very much just the beginning.”
