Hardware specialist VBH has announced an expansion to its customer facing technical support team.
George Stirling has joined the company in the new position of External Technical Sales Engineer, with responsibility for on-site technical support for VBH customers in both Scotland and the northern counties of England.
With 33 years industry experience, George is no stranger to hardware and the technicalities of windows and doors. Previous roles have included both PVCu and aluminium fabrication, remedial/service engineer, hardware and profile purchasing, and a stint at the sharp end as a door and window salesperson.
During his time as a factory manager, George dealt with VBH as they were a major hardware supplier to his company. He says, “Having done business with VBH for a number of years I am aware that the company is well respected within the industry.
The products that I used were of excellent quality and the service that we received was second to none. These factors made the decision to join VBH an easy one.”
Rob Norman, Technical Director of VBH adds, “We knew George from his time as a customer, so when we decided to create this new technical position in Scotland, his name was at the top of our list.
“His role is to support our customers with product demonstrations, help with test sample preparation and offer general support as required. His technical knowledge, versatility and easy-going personality make him ideal for that job, and we also know that he will slot straight in with the rest of the VBH team.”
George lives in Scotland’s central belt, so is ideally placed to reach VBH’s customers who deal with the company’s East Kilbride distribution site.
