[firstParagraph]
Weatherite Group has announced the appointment of Jim Gale to the newly created position of group managing director.
After holding senior directorship positions within the heating industry initially at British Gas and Oil Burners and latterly within Wolesley PLC Group at their Nu-Way Burner division, Jim joined Weatherite Group 15 years ago to head up Weatherite Manufacturing (WML) as managing director. During that time, the company's turnover has grown from £7.5 million in 1995 to over £18 million today.
Most recently he has played a significant role in moving WML's product range into low carbon, environmentally sensitive technologies, including air conditioning solutions utilising natural refrigerants, trigeneration packaged energy centres and ADsorption chillers.
