Agrovista Amenity has announced the appointment of Stewart Carbray and Sam Sweetzer who will join the company’s team of amenity specialists.
Stewart Carbray
Stewart joins from Bothwell Castle Golf Club where he worked for twenty-three years after initially joining as an apprentice. During this time, he worked his way up to the position of head greenkeeper, and after six years in this position he felt the time was right to embark on a new opportunity.
“I achieved what I set out to do at Bothwell Castle and I saw so many improvements at the course. I wanted to stay within the industry and always had an interest in the other side of the business, so the Agrovista opportunity was just too big to ignore.”
Stewart, who will be covering the areas of west and central Scotland and further down into Dumfries and Galloway borders.
Sam Sweetzer
Sam Sweetzer also comes from a greenkeeping background, and his last role was at The Buckinghamshire Golf Club as deputy course manager.
Sam said, “There is a huge amount of pressure and demand on greenkeepers at the moment and I’m looking forward to finding solutions for them."
Sam will be focusing on the areas of Buckinghamshire, Berkshire and Oxfordshire and says he is relishing the opportunity of building relationships with a wide variety of customers.
“I’m really looking forward to getting out on the road and meeting lots of different people, from many different sites and furthering my knowledge on various sports turf surfaces. My background might be in golf, but a lot of my clients will be working in colleges, schools, cricket, rugby and football."
