Refreshment Systems Strengthens Its Hand With Two Aces

After another highly successful year, Refreshment Systems has come up trumps with two strategic appointments in John Holton, as Commercial Director and Katie Jackson, who joins as Marketing Manager. The strategy? To drive the company forward to meet the challenges of an ever-changing marketplace.

John brings over 30 years of corporate know-how to Refreshment Systems and is described as ‘a highly effective and inspiring senior exec’.

‘I’m joining Refreshment Systems at a time of growth and I’m looking forward to helping develop the sales and marketing team and indeed the products we offer in the marketplace’, John told PV. ‘I have a fantastic team to work with and I can’t wait to see what we can achieve together.’

Katie joins Refreshment Systems with over 10 years’ marketing experience gained in a variety of sectors. Her background covers the full spectrum of marketing and communications and her brief is to improve the communication of the company’s good-news stories to both potential and existing customers. (Which means you’ll probably be reading a lot more about Refreshment Systems here on PV).

‘I’m so excited to join a company with such potential’, said Katie. ‘There’s so much opportunity and like John, I can’t wait to get started!’

It sounds as though we won’t have to wait long to find out What Katie Did Next…
