R Tindall has announced the appointment of James Ward as Sales and Commercial Director, further strengthening the company’s leadership team as it continues to invest in its fabrication capabilities and long-term growth within the fire sprinkler sector.
James brings with him more than 20 years of experience working across fabrication, manufacturing and the fire sprinkler industry. Over the course of his career, he has developed extensive knowledge of fabrication processes, manufacturing operations and commercial delivery within the fire protection sector.
His experience supporting contractors, installers and customers across the industry has given him a strong understanding of the operational and commercial demands that underpin successful sprinkler projects.
This combination of technical and commercial expertise makes him well placed to support R Tindall’s continued development as the company expands its fabrication offering and strengthens its position as a key supplier to the fire sprinkler market.
The appointment comes at an important time for the business as R Tindall continues to invest in the future of its fabrication operations, including increased automation, advanced manufacturing processes and digitalisation across the production environment. These investments form part of the company’s wider strategy to support future growth and further strengthen its presence within the fire protection sector.
Commenting on the appointment, Joe Yearn, Managing Director at R Tindall, said
“ We are over the moon to appoint James Ward as not just our Sales and Commercial Director but also a shareholder. The business is going through an astronomical change from semi-automation to full automation across fabrication, welding, powder coating and digitalisation. Having James on board helps the business dovetail this investment with further growth and an increase in market share.”
