Hull to retire

28 November 2018


Gill & Robinson north-west sales manager, Richard Hull, is retiring at the end of 2018.

Mr Hull started his career at PH Haydock in 1968 before moving to London in 1973 with Northwood Mills and Väner Skog. He moved back to the north-west and joined Rauma-Repola in 1978. In 1987 he joined Wm R Allen and moved to UCM in 1989.

He joined Gill & Robinson in 1997 and has managed the north-west area since then. The company held a dinner in his honour on October 10, which was attended by 50 friends and colleagues from the timber trade, both home and abroad.

The company has appointed Liam Grover and Robin White (both affiliated to their southern office in Rochester) to expand their UK sales force.
