German kitchen specialist Leicht Contracts has appointed Steve Northwood as its new head of sales, where he will work to identify new development opportunities for the company.
Stepping into the role at Leicht today, Northwood will look to identify and engage with new customers and leads for volume projects, overseeing every element of the sales journey going forward.
According to the company, he has more than 18 years of experience working with global manufacturers of residential and commercial building products.
He will work closely with newly appointed managing director Matt Goddon, who took over as head of the company at the beginning of this year.
“I am excited to make a difference with a great brand and business, which is already on track for a hugely successful year by establishing a strong project pipeline, alongside various contracted works in progress,” Northwood commented. “Concentrating on London and the home counties, my aim is to nurture existing relationships, and exponentially grow fresh prospects and turnkey development opportunities across the new build and regeneration construction market.”
Managing director Matt Goddon added: “The Leicht brand has gained significant momentum following the release of our new kitchen innovations including a range of brand new finishes, curved panels and exciting new furniture elements to both achieve and be on the cutting edge of design trends through 2026 and 2027. Since my promotion to MD, business confidence is high at Leicht Contracts, and we want to leverage this momentum with the appointment of a new head of sales to actively lead our UK sales teams, maximise growth, and our commitment to the architectural kitchen; a highly refined furniture concept, which meets the complexity and building standards of the homes of tomorrow.
“Steve will bring with him a unique skill set to our London design team, we cannot wait to start collaborating, building even stronger client connections, and ultimately sharing ideas from our experiences to develop and expand Leicht Contracts and enhance the Leicht brand.”
