Mills CNC appoints New Operations Manager

Date: 21 June 2010

Mills CNC, the exclusive distributor of Doosan machine tools in the UK and Ireland, has appointed Mr Joff Haigh as its Operations Manager.

Mr Haigh took up his new position in early June 2010 and replaces Nigel McLean who has recently retired following 3 successful years in the post.

The role of Operations Manager at Mills is pivotal to the Company's future growth and success.

Responsible for designing, developing and delivering Mills' comprehensive and customer-focused range of after-sales services to its large installed customer base, Mr Haigh is well qualified for the job having held a number of senior operations and quality management positions in UK manufacturing companies since graduating from Huddersfield University with a BSc in Mechanical & Production Engineering in 1994.

Says Joff Haigh:

'Mills is one, if not the most, successful machine tool companies in the UK. The Company has an unrivalled reputation in the market for the quality, accessibility and reliability of the Doosan CNC machine tools it sells, and for the technical and commercial excellence of the people it employs.

'The Company's range of after-sales services covering machine tool repair, maintenance and servicing; replacement and spare parts provision; ancillary equipment/product supply and installation; and CNC Programmer Training, Operator Training and Maintenance Training - is also held in similar high regard amongst customers.

'The task of improving Mills' after-sales service provision still further is exciting, and I'm looking forward to the challenge.'
