TES appoints new managing director

Leyland-based TES Communication Solutions has promoted Steve Smith to the position of managing director as the group begins plans for additional growth.

Steve (pictured), who previously served as head of business development, replaces Keith Edwards who moves into a new role as technical director.

Judith Eastham, who holds 30 years of business development experience working with clients such as Siemens, Xylem and nmcn, has been promoted to head of business development.

Prior to joining TES, Steve gained 30 years of experience working for BT, leading bid teams for national contracts, and spent his three years at TES building new relationships with clients and winning new contracts.

He will now lead a growth plan focusing on the company’s technical ability to deliver and support high tier integrated wireless communication systems to blue chip, enterprise, and government clients throughout the UK and overseas.

Steve said: "TES Communication Solutions has been providing quality modern services for 30 years now, offering our clients access to the latest radio technology systems so they can communicate safely, even across large areas or challenging environments. This is where our future lies and I am enthused by the challenge ahead.”
