Explaining the company strategy behind the new appointment, Duncan Jackson, head of SPP Pumps Dewatering Division, said: “Holland has a lot of land that is below sea level so there is a market here that we want to focus on. Mark is an ideal fit to lead our sales strategy in Holland as he has great experience in the area.”
