Following the recent announcement that Mark Morgan is stepping down from his post of Executive Director at ECG, Pound Gates confirm that he will join them in a newly created post of Commercial Director reporting to Group Managing Director Kevin Collins.

In this role Morgan will work alongside Directors Matt Holmes and Neal Gordon to help with the continued expansion plans into the European market.

“We are delighted that Mark will be joining the team and bringing with him a wealth of knowledge and experience,” commented Kevin Collins. ”We believe this will enhance the services provided to our customers and greatly enhance our understanding of the diverse customer needs in Europe. Mark’s experience of business in Europe will greatly assist us with our continued expansion plans. He has particular talents in the marketing area from which we anticipate benefiting and he is very well-connected and respected. The Pound Gates brand and reputation is very important to us and having someone who is so well-regarded will enhance our senior team. Mark will be a great asset for our business in terms of enhancing what we do for our customers and prospects and he will help us to deliver those leading products and services for which Pound Gates is well-known.

Commenting on the new role, Morgan said “I’m very excited about this opportunity as I feel that Pound Gates is an excellent company which has developed a high quality reputation and some unique service offerings. They have some ambitious plans for expansion in Europe and I feel privileged to be able to contribute to these plans.” 

Collins added, “Pound Gates is committed to developing and providing the best quality and value solutions for the sector. Our business is well-known but the key thing for us is that we are the leading specialist provider of risk management and damage control solutions in the sector. Although we are a UK-based business we already do a lot of business in Europe and Mark’s experience with ECG and the companies with which he has been dealing will hugely strengthen our position as we seek to grow and expand.”
