Westby cited Skyjack’s ‘easy-to-do-business-with’ approach and ‘scope for personal growth’ as contributing factors for his decision to join.

“I’m excited to engage with a whole new customer base and am looking forward to learning more about what drives the local aerial access equipment industry,” says Aron Westby, UK area sales manager at Skyjack.

Patterson also added that he is “absolutely delighted” as he and his team welcome both Westby and Stephens to Skyjack UK. “I’m sure that they will enhance our reputation as being a market-leading, customer-focused business.”
