Dunlop Adhesives has appointed Gary Knowles as product support coordinator.
Mr Knowles, who was previously self-employed with his own tiling company, will be overseeing the company's six product support technicians.

He said: "To be given the opportunity to work for such a high profile player in the tiling industry was not to be missed. Dunlop's ethos is one of constant progression, to make sure we have products in the marketplace to keep us at the forefront. It's great to be working for a company which has such great self belief behind not only its products but staff as well."

Dunlop Adhesives brand manager Janet Till said: "We're very pleased to have Gary here at Dunlop. With his technical experience and people management skills we have no doubt that he will prove to be a valuable asset to the business. Dunlop has ambitious plans for 2011 and investing in key personnel will help us to meet these goals."
