Harmer joins Mayflex from Norbain, where over a 20 year period he led strategic and major account development teams. Harmer joins the business on January 4 2011, managing the current Mayflex security sales team, which recently added Neil Jeffrey and Steve Green to its numbers.
He will be responsible for developing the strategic direction of the division, and maximising sales growth opportunities.
Andrew Percival, Mayflex UK managing director, said: “We are delighted to be able to bring so much knowledge and experience of the security market into the business; these opportunities do not come along very often.
“Add to this Gary’s natural enthusiasm and determination and the new recruits we announced just last month, and we are creating a team capable of supporting the growing number of our customers looking to become involved in the IP security market.”
Harmer said: “I am delighted to be joining the Mayflex team as they have a first class reputation as a leading distributor of technology based solutions. As the IT infrastructure and security markets converge I am confident that Mayflex will be best positioned to provide a host of value added services alongside a comprehensive product range that will meet the demands of today’s professional integrator and system user.”
