Jade forms two strategic new roles for growth

After a year of consolidation and stabilisation since moving into new 30,000 square foot premises, Jade is now gearing up for massive growth. To achieve this, the company is strengthening its core management team with the appointment of two key roles – Stephanie Tague has taken on the newly formed sales and marketing manager, and Harry Heer has stepped into the role of design engineering manager to lead the company’s existing technical and design team.

Having worked across the fenestration sector supply chain in a variety of sales and marketing roles, Stephanie brings with her extensive experience and knowledge that will help elevate Jade’s current position as a core supplier to the industry.

“Jade fulfils a key function right at the start of the supply chain, and the company’s input into improving manufacturing processes in the industry has so much potential,” said Stephanie. “I’m looking forward to opening up conversations and exploring opportunities with all existing and new customers.”

Harry Heer brings with him world-leading skills developed through his previous role as CAD engineer manager with the Polestar UK R&D team.

“Jade has an existing team of four CAD engineers who all demonstrate a remarkable range of talent and knowledge,” said Harry. “It is my job to bring them together and, through training and further investment in design tools, the potential in what we can develop is limitless. Coming from a corporate automotive background, it’s a perfect opportunity for me to instil knowledge to help take Jade to the next level of design and provide technical advice in helping our customers to continuously improve their own production efficiencies.”

Jade designs and manufactures precision tooling and specialist machinery for the production of PVCu and aluminium systems, delivering practical solutions to complex machining challenges.
