Ainscough adds to sales team

UK based Ainscough Crane Hire has strengthened its sales team with the appointment of three new area sales managers.

Crane rental veteran, Kevin Vogan has joined Ainscough’s West London depot, whilst Steve Waterworth, who comes from a facility rental background, will be based at depots in Preston and the Wirral. The third new recruit is Vincent Todhunter, who has 35 years of plant hire experience and joins as Ainscough’s new sales contact for the Cumbria region.

Ainscough sales director, George Kesterton said: “At Ainscough, quality of service is paramount and it’s important that our sales teams have the industry know-how to fully understand the needs of our customers, so we can deliver the best solutions. Our new sales recruits have a wealth of experience and expertise – adding further strength to the Ainscough team.”

At the same time the company has established a new Heavy Lift Projects division as an extension of its Heavy Cranes Division. The new division is intended to provide managed solutions for the petrochemical and power sectors, offering logistical co-ordination and technical expertise for multiple heavy lift projects.

Steve Wathen, commercial director of Ainscough Heavy Cranes said: “Our Heavy Lift Projects division offers a comprehensive solution that goes beyond a hire-only contract to provide full turnkey project management. From feasibility studies and technical planning, to logistical co-ordination; we take an integrated approach that provides a fully managed, cost effective lifting solution.”
