Introducing our new Supply Chain Manager

We’re delighted to welcome Simon Haizelden to the Agon Systems team. Simon is taking on the job of Supply Chain Manager – a role which is vital to ensure a steady supply of products and parts for our clients.

Simon joins us from Veritek, an engineering company, where he worked in a variety of departments, including parts and customer service, before moving into an operational role. As their Operations Team Leader, Simon oversaw large scale rollouts of machinery to major high street retailers.

Simon had already done some work with us during his time at Veritek, so when our Supply Chain Manager vacancy came up, he was an obvious candidate. From Simon’s perspective it coincided with him seeking a new challenge. Perfect timing all round!

From his work at Veritek, Simon has gained experience in a broad range of technologies across the retail sector. His expertise is now being focused on ensuring the highest standards of service for our clients.

A quick learner, Simon is getting to grips with the challenges of organising the vast logistics involved in producing and delivering our systems. He’s already had a transport strike in Spain to deal with, so it has been something of a baptism of fire. Simon is quickly becoming a popular and reliable member of our team and is enjoying working with us.

Outside of work, Simon is a keen runner, having done 40 half marathons and 6 full marathons. He’s currently in training to run the Brighton Marathon this month. He loves the gym and does a lot of crossfit to complement his running. He’s also partial to relaxing with a glass of wine afterwards.

Simon also has an interest in horses – having worked in the horse racing industry for 16 years prior to joining Veritek. So, we know who to go to for our Grand National tips this year!

If you’re ready for a new challenge, we’re always on the lookout for motivated people to join our team. To find out more contact Elaine at elaine.allen@agon-systems.com
