New CEO Craig Storey and sales director Craig McQueen bring unrivalled experience to expand Lightware’s business across the UK market, according to the manufacturer of precision video signal management products.

Under their leadership Lightware UK is hoping to consolidate its position in the region with a new focus on growth after a successful last financial year.

Storey will head up the Lightware UK office, overseeing all aspects of the UK business and its strategy. After joining Lightware a few weeks before Covid hit, Storey steered the company through the uncertainties of the pandemic.

He was tasked with maintaining revenue for the UK through the first year (2019-20) and then growing the team who delivered the highest revenue year for the division on record for the 2021-22 financial year.

Joining Storey is McQueen, who will take charge of a growing sales team amid an ongoing recruitment drive. He brings with him deep knowledge gained from decades of experience in the industry.

“These are very exciting times and I’m looking forward to the challenge of building on our impressive recent success,” said McQueen.

“Lightware is a fantastic company to work for with big things happening over the next five years, both in the UK and the international stage. We’re going to have a big impact on the market and can’t wait to meet our customers’ needs.”

Storey added: “I am very honoured to head the UK team as CEO and be offered the opportunity to build on the last few years of growth that have been achieved so far.

“I firmly believe that Lightware’s approach to product and engineering, as well as its customer focus, create opportunities for growth that are difficult for others to replicate.

“I have no doubt that we have the strategy, product and a growing team of professionals to create value for our customers and fulfil our potential.”
