After the launch of the Snake roller rotary mower last year and with its UK operations team moving to new premises in Northamptonshire, it is an exciting time for the company.

"Trimax is a growing business – certainly in this part of the world. There is a lot more potential for even further growth. So for me, it’s a case of coming in at a very good time,” said Patrick.

Patrick arrives at Trimax with a wealth of experience after joining from Brush, the largest independent manufacturer of turbo generators in the world, where he also held a supply management role.

In his new position, Patrick will be ensuring that 90% of the parts used for production are sourced in the UK and Europe as well as overseeing the general strategic supply element of the business.

“I’m looking forward to having the opportunity of putting my mark on the supply chain side of things, while also speaking to our dealer network and end users,” he said.
