UK based UV curing systems manufacturer GEW has announced several key changes to the Senior Management of its operations, headquartered in West Sussex, England.
These changes mark the transition of leadership of the family-owned company to the next generation.
Rob Rae becomes Managing Director of the global GEW business and is President of GEW Inc. in Ohio. Rob continues to lead the company’s Sales, Marketing and R&D functions.
Ele Neill (née Rae) becomes Company Secretary and is Global HR Director. Ele now oversees all financial matters within GEW as well as her HR role.
Both Rob and Ele have gained a wealth of experience in their 13 year careers with GEW. Rob has gained invaluable experience of all GEW products. He has introduced scientific rigour to the R & D department resulting in the development of GEW’s ground breaking AeroLED and LeoLED LED curing systems. Under Rob’s leadership sales at GEW have grown steadily in all market sectors across the globe.
Ele has rounded experience in all operational areas of the business. Her energy and drive has been vital in global recruitment of the very best people available, as she remarks: “Only through our staff can long term success be realised.”
Malcolm and Gillian Rae, company founders and owners will continue as Executive Directors of GEW. They will maintain a strong interest in the business and provide advice and guidance as required.
“The time is right for these changes”, comments Rob Rae, “The business is in a strong position which affords my parents time to take more of a guiding role in the future. Together we have built a unique business with a strong product range and a pipeline of new products in development. Success is never guaranteed but GEW has exceptional prospects. Our fellow Directors are each vastly experienced in their field, GEW is uniquely positioned to prosper with the next generation of leadership.”
