Pipe Center and Climate Center have created a new trading leadership team.

Led by recently appointed trading director Chris Banner, the team will be responsible for delivering Pipe and Climate Center’s ambitious sales and service agenda via field sales teams and the nationwide branch network.

The move is a further refinement of the new senior management structure put in place earlier this year by managing director Lee Jon Newman.

Under Chris Banner, the trading leadership team comprises newly appointed sales director Robb Alsem, Climate Center development director Robert Franklin, and industrial development director Marcus Sampson, alongside Mike Russell (branch director) and Geoff Stone (national accounts director).

Robb Alsem joins Pipe Center and Climate Center from a senior management position with another major building services company, while Robert Franklin and Marcus Sampson have been promoted from within the business.
