Mark Baker appointed as Business Development Manager at FMA, to bring specific expertise in the process, chemical, food and beverage, pharmaceutical and utilities industries

Following a twelve-month period that has seen FMA continue to enhance its engineering skills base across all areas, the Lichfield based project design, management, process control and manufacturing information technologies specialists have appointed Mark Baker as a Business Development Manager.

An engineering graduate with over twenty years' sales and marketing expertise - the majority of which has been spent in field sales and business development in the instrumentation, controls and automation sectors - Mark offers specific experience in the process, chemical, food and beverage, pharmaceutical and utilities industries.

He is a Member of the Institute of Measurement and Control and a Fellow of the Institute of Sales and Marketing Management.

Commented FMA Sales and Marketing Director, Paul Bunyan: "As part of our on-going business development strategy, we are obviously keen to further expand sales opportunities in those sectors where we are already well known, as well as present the FMA range of industry-leading capabilities to new industries.

Mark's high levels of experience and outstanding sector-specific knowledge made him an obvious choice to join the sales team in the role of Business Development Manager - focussing mainly on the food and pharma sectors".

Mark Baker's appointment follows on from the recent promotion of FMA Senior Project Engineer, Nick Jones, to the role of Project Engineering Manager and FMA investment in several new software, project and process engineers.

Concluded Paul Bunyan: "Having grown to become a UK success story and a truly international player, we now have the people, systems and procedures in place to further enhance the levels of service provided to existing clients and bring new levels of capability to even more organisations in the domestic and global brewing markets, dairy, general liquid processing, food manufacturing and pharmaceutical industries".
