Regional director for Europe Phil Bentley said: “Chris Dixon brings with him a wealth of experience in the mechanical handling services sector, both in the UK and overseas. Our newly created Mechanical Handling Services business line merges the management of our cranes and lifting, hydraulics and training services divisions, allowing us to offer a more integrated service to the wider energy market. Chris will work closely with global business line director, John Morrison, to deliver this integrated solution.”
