BROTHER CONFIRMS PHIL JONES AS UK MANAGING DIRECTOR

29 Apr 2013

Phil Jones has been appointed Managing Director of Brother UK, heading up a 180-strong workforce and with responsibility for £100m of sales. This follows his promotion to deputy MD in March.

Commenting on the appointment, Mr Jones said, “I’m thrilled to be given the responsibility to lead Brother in the UK as MD.  Having joined the business back in the early 1990s with little leadership or business management experience, my journey really underlines Brother’s commitment to investing in people and backing talent - a culture that I’m determined to continue building during my tenure.” 

He added, “The UK is a strategically important market to Brother. With a committed team, a loyal customer base and some great new innovative technology, we have a fantastic opportunity to continue to grow in the years ahead.   My appointment couldn’t have come at a more exciting time for the business.”

Phil , 45, lives in Warrington with his wife and two teenage children. He is a regular speaker and blogger on leadership, innovation and personal growth, and is a keen road cyclist.
