DD-Scientific, manufacturers of cutting-edge gas sensor technologies, have announced the appointment of Will Parrett as its new Sales & Marketing Director. Will brings over 20 years’ experience in technical sales and marketing, which most recently saw him responsible for managing growth, modernisation and rebranding as Sales & Marketing Director EMEA at sensor manufacturer Alphasense. The addition of Will strengthens DD’s Senior Leadership Team as the business moves forward with an ambitious five-year plan.
In addition to his time at Alphasense, Will held a senior position with instrument manufacturer Honeywell Analytics, giving him an understanding of both OEM and end user applications within the gas detection and monitoring spaces. Will’s earlier career experience spans the industrial and petrochemical sectors and in recent years he become increasingly influential in the Air Quality industry, a growing segment within the gas detection sphere.
In parallel with Wills appointment, former Sales Director Rob White is transitioning to the role of Director of Excellence, where he will focus on the continued delivery of manufacturing innovation across the business.
Rob, instrumental to DD’s growth as Sales Director for the last eight years, will combine his understanding of DD’s business operations and global customer base to ‘ensure the company remains best in class whilst its product offering and production volumes continue to grow’. In this pivotal role, Rob will also spearhead DD’s new ConnecteDD offering which provides customers with full traceability of transactions and performance data down to an individual sensor level.
Commenting on both the appointment and his new role, Rob says: ‘I am delighted to welcome Will to the team. With him on board, I can be confident our customers remain in safe hands whilst I focus on driving our business to the next level operationally and continue to enhance our renowned customer experience.’
Daniel Davies, founder and CEO of DD-Scientific, is pragmatic about this strategic change to his Senior Management Team, commenting: ‘Will’s appointment underpins our desire to bring the best people into the business. I am confident that Will, Rob and the wider DD team will deliver continued success over the next five years as we continue to invest in next-generation manufacturing equipment, processes and technology.’
