FLIR appoint new regional key accounts manager

A long standing specialist in thermography has joined FLIR in the UK as its Key Accounts Manager. Based in Stoke-on-Trent, Phil Webb is now responsible for managing and supporting FLIR’s distributor network in the North of England, Scotland and all of Ireland. An essential element of the job is product training, a task for which Phil is extremely well qualified. He holds Level 3 in electrical installation and Level 2 in thermography, electrical inspection, test and initial verification.

Phil joins FLIR from one of the company’s main distributors, Acute Sales, so he already has a deep working knowledge of the hand-held products he now directly represents. These extend from FLIR Test and Measurement instrumentation, through the pocket-portable FLIR C2 and troubleshooting FLIR Ex and Exx Series, to the top-of-range FLIR T1K; and all models in between.

“Having been involved in the sale of FLIR products for a long time, I know they are the Rolls Royce of the industry,” Phil explained. “I jumped at the chance to work for the company direct as no other manufacturer comes close in terms of build quality and usability. These attributes combined with a policy of continuous development makes this job an exciting prospect for me.”
