Reporting to Rob Dunk, Claydon’s sales manager - UK and Ireland, James is working with the company’s dealers to look after existing and potential customers in an area north of a line from the River Humber to Rochdale in Lancashire. His area borders the regions covered by fellow Claydon UK territory managers Charlie Eaton (Wales and West/South West) and Taig Norman (East).
In recent years James has worked for Agco dealer Peacock and Binnington before moving to John Deere dealer RBM Agriculture at Market Weighton in East Yorkshire, which was subsequently acquired by Ripon Farm Services.
James said, “I am looking forward to working with and supporting all our dealers and customers in the area and already in my first few weeks with the company have been involved with a number of well-attended, socially-distanced working demonstrations. These were held in conjunction with two of our dealers, Rickerby Limited, together with Robert D Webster."
Rob Dunk added, “We are delighted to welcome James to the Claydon team. He will help to increase our representation throughout the UK at a time when interest in Claydon products has never been greater because of increasing legislative, economic and climate-related challenges facing the farming industry."
