VAILLANT's new marketing manager James Parkinson and his new team are to tackle brand marketing for the firm and keep an eye on marketing opportunities in the renewables sector.
Parkinson, based at Vaillant's Belper offices in Derbyshire, is joined by former Calor Gas employee Louisa Tipping, who has taken up the post of marketing communications manager. She will promote Vaillant's heating and air conditioning products.
The company has also hired a new marketing assistant, Claire Dibble.

Vaillant's new brand man James Parkinson said: 'My biggest challenge is to ensure that the Vaillant brand is represented effectively across all markets, particularly with the ongoing growth of new technologies, including renewable products.

'Vaillant aims to promote renewable technologies and energy efficiency, in order to provide the UK with a more realistic prospect of long-term energy security and reduced carbon emissions.'
