Internal promotion at SLD Pumps and Power

Phil McDevitt appointed as technical sales manager for Scotland and the north of England

SLD Pumps and Power have announced the internal promotion of Phil McDevitt to the role of technical sales manager for Scotland and the north of England.

Mr McDevitt began his career with the company as a staff apprentice and has since gained experience of almost every role in the company, including depot manager.

He has worked as a ‘troubleshooter’ at most of the company’s Scottish branches and has experience in a wide range of market sectors, including aggregates, mining, construction, civil engineering, utilities, marine and manufacturing.

Most recently, Mr McDevitt (pictured) held area and regional sales roles within Scotland, but as an engineer first and foremost, he is now acknowledged as a technical specialist for the whole northern division.

He will play a key part in supporting highly complex large-scale projects that are rapidly becoming the company’s area of specialism alongside its regionally distributed depot-based hire fleet business.
