Simon Allan is joining Hawco as CEO
Air conditioning and refrigeration component supplier Hawco has named Simon Allan as its new CEO and a member of the executive board, succeeding Martin Butler, who is leaving the business after 25 years.
Allan has held a series of senior management positions in distribution businesses, most recently as Country Manager responsible for the UK & Ireland division of ADI Global. He previously worked for Armstrong Fluid Technology and Wolseley, including time as Commercial Director for the cooling business under the Climate Centre brand.
Hawco Chairman Duncan Wilkes said: “We are delighted that Simon is joining us to lead the business as it builds on the foundations that Martin has put in place over several years. He brings huge experience in leading distribution businesses and growing revenue.”
Allan, who will be managing a handover with Butler during September, said: “This is a great time to be joining Hawco. We are well positioned for growth with a very experienced team, a strong product range, the ability to provide our customers with effective technical guidance and ambitious owners. I am looking forward to an exciting time as I take up the role in September.”
