As well as business development and customer support in his regions, Phil will play a key part in Barenbrug’s UK research at its Cropvale site in Worcestershire. This follows the promotion of Dr David Greenshields to Amenity Business Manager, who will be leading Barenbrug’s European research efforts.
A keen golfer and ex-greenkeeper, Phil joined Barenbrug in May 2016, from the Sports Turf Research Institute (STRI), where he looked at the newest and most exciting technologies in the turfgrass industry.
Phil said, “My goal is to make sure the sports facilities in my region have the right information, so they can make good decisions and get the best products for their facility - always backed by solid research.
"Barenbrug invests a huge amount in R&D. Their focus is on finding a solution to a problem, not just pushing out bags of seed. That what makes this role really interesting. So I’m looking forward to working on trial plots and wear trials at Cropvale, and taking customers along to show them how we select our grasses, to get the very best results.”
