Simon Jersey appoints new business development manager

Altham-based uniform provider Simon Jersey has strengthened its team with the appointment of Mike Atkin as business development manager.

Simon Jersey has a long history of providing bespoke uniform designs to some of the UK’s best known brands, including dressing Team GB for last year’s Rio 2016 Olympic Games. Mike will be looking to build upon this heritage and attract new customers to the brand.

He said: “It’s an exciting time to join Simon Jersey. The company has a long-standing reputation as a great workwear provider, but it has also proved it is not afraid to do things differently – such as dressing Team GB last year.

Paul Farrell, sales director for Simon Jersey, said: “We’re thrilled that Mike has joined us, bringing with him both sales experience and a background in kitting out winning teams. “He has already hit the ground running, organising some exciting meetings and reviewing how we promote ourselves to key account customers in the UK and beyond.”
