The Carfulan Group has welcomed two new technical sales engineers to its ranks as it seeks to build on the success of the previous 12 months.

Former professional cricketer and recruitment consultant Wayne White, who spent 12 years playing cricket for Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Lancashire and Cheshire, joins 3D printing expert SYS Systems, a Stratasys UK platinum partner.

Dave Evans, who has more than 20 years’ experience in the tooling and manufacturing industry, has been recruited by Zoller UK, a specialist in offline tool pre-setting and inspection technology.

The move is a sign of the Derbyshire-based Carfulan Group’s ambitions for growth. In September 2018, XJ3D became the fifth company in its portfolio, after Israel-based metal and additive manufacturing specialist XJet appointed it as its first worldwide partner.

Carfulan Group managing director Chris Fulton said: “We specialise in the full range of complementary manufacturing technologies, from design through production to quality control, offering our customers unparalleled expertise.

“Our engineers are in higher demand than ever before, so we are delighted to welcome Wayne and Dave to the team. We hope they’ll enjoy long and rewarding careers here as we continue our mission of helping UK manufacturers to work more efficiently.”

Mr White, 33, who has a university qualification in business, management, marketing and related support services, said: “I’ve known about the Carfulan Group for a while and hold the company in high esteem. The opportunity arose, I went for it and luckily for me I got the job.

“The guys have done really well here the last few years so I’m looking forward to learning from them, but I’m looking forward to getting out and meeting people most of all.”

Dave, 42, started his career as a CNC operator with Sigma Precision Components in Hinckley, working his way through the ranks to become a cell supervisor and, finally, NPI (New Product Introduction) manager. Around four years ago he achieved an ambition to move into sales with Nuneaton-based Cogsdill.

He said: “I was very happy at Cogsdill but when the opportunity came up with ZOLLER, which is such a well-known brand, it was one not to pass up.”
