In the newly created role, Vaughan will oversee sales of Rotair portable compressors, hydraulic breakers and mini dumpers and an expansion of its dealer base across the UK and Ireland.

According to the Italy-based company, Vaughan comes with a “proven track record in customer relations and sales growth” having spent over a decade in the construction sector.

The appointment comes off the back of what the company described as “significant growth” in key European markets.

Vaughan specialises in customer engagement, business development and people management and has experience in establishing and maintaining a client base.

Giuseppe Donadio, Managing Director of Rotair, said: “We are honoured that Chris has joined the Rotair team with a remit to strengthen our presence in the UK and Ireland by building strong customer relations and a strengthened dealer network.

“Chris’ appointment comes amid and will reinforce an exciting growth period for Rotair in the UK and Ireland in the past two years, especially of our VRK Fibre and Fibre Plus units which are specifically conceived, designed and manufactured for fibre optic cable laying.”

Vaughan added: “I’m excited to be able to bring my skills and experience in construction and business development to achieve ROTAIR’s ambitious growth strategy for the UK and Ireland.

“Growing our entire UK and Ireland sales base with a focus on actively growing our dealer base and tightening our customer relationships, particularly in civil engineering, construction, sandblasting, fibre optics and the agricultural sectors will be key to our success.”
