Product Manager - PPE and Safety, ERIKS Industrial Services

I have worked in PPE, Workwear and Safety for over 25 years working in both product management and business development. My experience has seen me work for manufacturers, distributors and run my own business. 

My role here at ERIKS includes supporting the network, advising and helping them to keep up with legislation, best practice, and the promotion of quality PPE from leading brands and trusted suppliers. My focus is to develop the PPE and Safety category further over the coming years and help the business with new business wins.
