Trimax Mowing Systems UK has announced the appointment of David Thompson as their new UK and Europe Manager.

David’s is the second newly created role in a matter of weeks, following the appointment of new European Supply Manager, Patrick O’Callaghan.

David will be responsible for ensuring that the Trimax European hub continues to achieve profitable growth in line with the company ethos of forming valuable, enduring partnerships with the Trimax family. David’s employment history has seen him working at companies such as Valor, Ingersoll Rand and Elwis; something which he believes will be of great benefit to him in his new role.

“I am fortunate to have gained a wide range of business experience, starting in sales (both UK and International), progressing to management of commercial support activities and then on to general management. I hope to be able to apply this to my role with Trimax,” he said.

2014 saw the launch of Trimax’s Snake rotary mower and this year sees the arrival of the Warlord S3 - a heavy duty flail mulcher mower. Dealers across the UK and Europe are being treated to a continuous steam of high quality Trimax machinery and David is particularly keen on becoming familiar with some of the company’s trusted dealers.

“I’m looking forward to getting to know and working closely with our dealer network and to build on the success we have enjoyed together so far.

“Though there is a great deal to learn, I am keen to get to grips with the challenges and opportunities of managing Trimax through the next growth phase and I am looking forward to becoming involved in and getting a deeper understanding of the groundscare industry,” he said.
