Max Manina has been appointed managing director of Biesse UK as part of a reorganisation to strengthen the board of the company as a result of its rapid growth.
Biesse UK has expanded year on year since it was established in 1993, and over the last five years has doubled in size.
As a result, the top post is ‘no longer a one-man job’ and former managing director Trevor Bullen, an accountant by profession, has decided to step aside into the newly-created role of finance director, with Max Manina now taking overall responsibility for the management and future direction of Biesse UK and concentrating particularly on sales and service.
Mr Manina has worked for the Italian Biesse group since 1990 and has held posts throughout the world, especially south-east Asia. He moved to Biesse UK in 1998 and most recently was based in Ireland, and will be particularly well known by customers for Selco beam saws and the Polymac range of edgebanders.
