Meet Your Local Fabricator Sales Manager

Jonathan Hicks - Head of Sales, England North

“I’ve been working in the construction industry, both in contracting and sales, for over 40 years now and throughout this time, I’ve helped grow multiple businesses operating in the fenestration sector. This experience has allowed me to expand my business knowledge, supporting our customers with whatever they may need throughout their switching journey.

“A key principle of working at REHAU is teamwork. As an Area Sales Manager, I have had the opportunity to work on both my technical and commercial understanding to be able to support the sales team and our customers. Our fabricators are always able to contact their Area Sales Manager, or anyone in the REHAU management team. No matter the question, we’re here and more than happy to help.”

 Luke Boban - Head of Sales, England South

“My time working in the fenestration industry actually began as an Operations Manager for my father’s window installation business. This means I've had the pleasure of working on both sides of the industry and can resonate with a lot of the pain points and goals that you will be familiar with.

“As a previous Area Sales Manager and now Head of Sales at REHAU, I’ve had the opportunity to work with many fabricators on a variety of projects. This has allowed me to broaden my skillset covering value engineering, cost management, and quantity surveying.

“It’s safe to say that after six fantastic years at REHAU I’ve built some brilliant relationships with our clients and have got to know our products inside out. The focus of my role has always been to make sure our fabricators receive suitable, high-performing and compliant window products that grow their business and delight their customers. Working with and getting to know fabricators is truly one of the best parts of my job.”

Declan Coulter - Ireland and Scotland Divisional Sales Manager

“I’ve got 40 years’ experience in the window and door industry which has allowed me to work with both fabricators and installers operating in a range of sectors. Four decades has also given me plenty of time to nail the fabrication process so I know all the tips and tricks for making the switching process as simple as possible. Whether you’re a small or large fabricator, the REHAU team is here to help your business succeed.

“My role has also allowed me to expand my knowledge of machine tooling requirements for the fabrication process, whether it be for a domestical or commercial project. And I love working with a range of stakeholders. Your clients are our clients, and we’ll make sure the products you provide go above and beyond their expectations.”

Hormoz Nouri - Scotland Area Sales Manager

“I have over four decades of experience in the window industry and have honed my skills as an area sales manager to consistently secure new accounts and drive growth of existing ones. A change of system should not be a major hassle. That’s why we agree every aspect of the changeover with you beforehand to make it as easy as possible while keeping disruption to a minimum.

“I support projects from conception to completion all the way through design, manufacture, and installation. My experience means I understand what is required at each stage of a project and can be on hand to help fabricators at any time.”

Trisha Naik - North West Area Sales Manager

“I started working in the fenestration industry seven years ago and this year marks my fifth year at REHAU. Prior to venturing into the world of windows, I worked within logistics, specifically within transport so I like to think I’ve got a broad range of experience that I can bring to our fabricators.

“My current role sees me support new and existing fabricators on a day-to-day basis meaning I can really get to grips with understanding what our customers need on an individual level. I’m also always on the lookout for growth opportunities for our fabricators using new and exciting REHAU products to expand their portfolio and increase their confidence in an ever-competitive market. This also involves taking a closer look at our fabricator’s marketing activity to see where we can help them future-proof their business.” 

Hannah Smith - East Midlands and South Yorkshire Area Sales Manager

“My role focuses on managing and growing existing fabricator accounts, as well as welcoming new faces to the REHAU family. I love being able to build new relationships with fabricators while nurturing longstanding ones. 

“Having previously worked in sales, I enjoy engaging in third-party deals and demonstrating new and existing products to customers. Making connections within the industry to promote REHAU is another key part of my role, assisting all our customers’ needs. Being able to develop my own skills and product knowledge is something I really value about this role and it’s great to be able to share what I’ve learned along the way with our fabricators.”

Gareth Thomas - Wales and Southwest Area Sales Manager

“I am a dedicated B2B senior sales manager for REHAU UK, covering Wales and the Southwest. I’m particularly focused on customer satisfaction throughout all stages of the sales cycle. I’ve been working in the industry for 10 years, during which I have worked for fabricators and trade counters alike before joining REHAU.

“I really enjoy working with fabricators because they are the heartbeat of the industry. It allows me to see our product being made to the highest standard and is always a learning experience for me as many of these fabricators have worked in the industry for many years and have built up a great bank of knowledge.”
