NEW UK DIRECTOR FOR KRAMP

Following the retirement this summer of its UK country director, Des Boyd, who has seen turnover more than double during his tenure, Kramp has appointed Mark Rogers to succeed him in the same role.

Mark moves into the business from competitor TVH, where he was its UK managing director.

Kramp says Mark has a unique background for a senior executive, having begun his career as a mobile technician and then a field service engineer. He credits his practical knowledge and understanding of engineers as a significant factor in his career’s success since moving into management. 

To further Mark’s management credentials, he completed an MBA at the University of Northampton in 2019.

“I was very excited by Kramp’s ambition,” says Mark. “There’s a huge desire to grow, with lots of opportunity to move quickly, which is what I like. The business has clear, ambitious goals for where it wants to be by 2030.”

Mark says he is grateful to Des for leaving the UK business in great shape, with an experienced, motivated team ready to meet a set of challenging objectives. “My job is to add fresh impetus to the fantastic progress that has already been made,” he concluded.
