Richard Wilson, White Light's long-serving operations director spent many years as he making the practical side of getting the lights out of the door work he is now moving to the position of business development director, working to introduce The White Light Group to new clients and new areas of business. Bryan Raven, White Light Group's general manager, commented: "Richard's record of making the sharp end of our business work is well proven - after all, however much we promise it means nothing unless we actually get the right lights out at the right time! Having successfully established new working methods for our warehouse in the two years since our move to Wimbledon from Fulham, Richard was looking for a new challenge - so now we're letting him make the promises to customers rather than just delivering on them!"
New to the White Light Group is Andrew Stringer, who has as sales office manager, working alongside sales director Peter Threadgold and the rest of the team. Stringer joins from Stage Electrics and a brief stint in Canada. Prior to his time there he spent several years working at Cerebrum in London. Peter Threadgold commented: "Having worked with him at Cerebrum I am greatly looking forward to renewing our successful working relationship."Joining the White Light Group management team is Aubs Tredget, in a newly created position of marketing manager. He will oversee marketing for every part of The Group. Aubs has a great deal of marketing experience, gained both inside and outside the entertainment lighting industry in the UK and Australia. "He's also the first marketing person I've spoken to who has said things simply in English rather than in marketing-speak," explains Raven. "That was very refreshing! I think this means that Aubs will fit in well with White Light's approach to getting the job done, and I am looking forward to working with him."
