Rutronik is expanding its team and is opening another office.
At the new Rutronik Office in Swindon, 14 field sales staff serve existing and potential customers in the south of the country.
“We are currently in the process of expanding our team in the UK significantly, but this is not the only reason for another office. This additional office enables us to better cover the country while also bringing us closer to our customers and suppliers in the south. Our presence in this strongly booming, innovative region with many start-ups and development companies is especially important”, says Thomas Rudel, CEO of Rutronik.
Around 60 per cent of the DTAM in the UK and Ireland is attributable to the south of England.
To offer British customers globally consistent support and maximum flexibility in production planning, the new office is seamlessly integrated into the Rutronik structure and connected to the globally standardized IT infrastructure.
Rutronik has been represented in the UK since 2005. A team of currently 55 is available for existing and potential customers at the offices in Bolton and Swindon.
