WH Surface Preparation UK Ltd is pleased to welcome Ashley Nicholls to the business as our new Stores & Purchase Manager.

This new role has been created to support the continued growth of the company and the increasing purchasing requirements across all WH Surface Preparation depots.

Ashley joins us with extensive industry experience, having previously worked at Sunbelt for many years. His knowledge and background make him well placed to step into this central role and support the smooth running of our stores, purchasing and supplier management operations.

Based at our Dudley depot, Ashley will oversee purchasing requirements across the business, from the smallest bolts through to large machines and specialist equipment. His responsibilities will include controlling and reviewing stock levels, improving availability across depots, and ensuring the right items are in the right place at the right time.

A key part of the role will also be building and strengthening relationships with both existing and new suppliers. By taking a more centralised approach to purchasing and stock control, WH Surface Preparation aims to improve efficiency, support depot teams and continue delivering the reliable service our customers expect.

We are delighted to have Ashley on board and look forward to seeing the positive impact he will make in this newly created position.
