UK based Office Furniture maker Godfrey Syrett \u00a0appointed a new executive chairman to help drive forward their ambitious growth strategy. The company appointed Mark Dixon<\/span>, who has raised their growth target from \u00a340m to \u00a350m, a turnover which Godfrey Syrett\u00a0plans to achieve by 2020.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mark brings with him a wealth of experience and strong track record in developing highly successful business models.\u00a0 He previously established the Promanex Group in 1996, a facilities management company, which he successfully sold to Costain in 2011.<\/p>\n

Mark now acts as chairman on behalf of a number of SME\u2019s including Milton Keynes-based Maintenance Management Ltd and safety equipment manufacturer, Supply Plus Ltd in Cambridge.\u00a0The role at Godfrey Syrett will see Mark returning to his roots in the North East, where he grew up and attended Newcastle University Business School.<\/p>\n

“Joining Godfrey Syrett is joining a true North East success story”<\/h4>\n

Mark said:\u00a0\u201cBeing from the North East originally I was particularly drawn to the role at Godfrey Syrett.\u00a0 It is a great business with a fantastic range of products and a very loyal client-base.\u00a0 I am delighted to be joining a true North East success story to help take the business to the next level.\u00a0<\/em>
\nThe strategy will see us\u00a0consolidate the infrastructure of the business to further improve efficiency and build on existing sales, with the aim of taking the turnover to \u00a350 million by 2020. This will include strategic appointments in key areas of the business and continuing\u00a0to grow into new sectors as well as extending the existing client-base<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

David Hall, group sales & marketing director at Godfrey Syrett added:\u00a0\u201cWe are delighted to welcome Mark to the role of executive chairman at Godfrey Syrett, given his extensive knowledge and experience he is well placed to provide top-level leadership to help us achieve our new growth target.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
