UK - TSL Lighting has introduced three key additions to its team: Matt Farquhar, Jamie Wells, and Luke McCreary. Each of them brings considerable industry experience and knowledge, fresh perspectives, and a shared commitment to enhancing the efficiency and quality of operations.
Farquhar joined TSL in June 2024 as head of operations, overseeing IT, transport, warehouse, assets, and projects. With over 50 members of staff under his leadership and five managers, including Wells and McCreary, reporting directly to him. Farquhar plays a crucial role in driving operational efficiency and keeping TSL’s business operations aligned with growth targets.
“It’s always a bit unnerving not knowing what kind of team you’re coming into, but I’ve loved starting at TSL,” says Farquhar. “It’s been fantastic – I’ve been made to feel welcome and the people are really nice. We’re all fighting for a cause that’s worthwhile, and everyone is on the same page.”
Only a few months into his role at TSL, Farquhar’s first huge project has been managing the development of TSL’s new warehouse space. “We want a really high-quality finish for everything [in the new warehouse] – new training rooms, office spaces, and other facilities. If it’s a great environment for our people, it will translate into better service for our customers.”
Wells joined TSL in January as an IT manager, focusing on high-level business systems and infrastructure. Having previously worked in a warehouse and as a project manager, his combined knowledge of operations and technology makes him uniquely suited for this role.
With a background in technical theatre and a career path that progressed from prepping equipment to project management, McCreary joined the team in January as an operational project manager. As part of his role he has taken leadership over focusing on the design and construction of TSL’s new building. His goal is to drive greater efficiency and better working practices across the business.
