Promotion as Long-term Employee Progresses From Strength to Strength

11 years after joining wastewater monitoring specialist, Detectronic, Oliver Harrison has been promoted to sales manager.

Oliver – or Olly as he is fondly known amongst his colleagues – began his Detectronic career as a field service technician in 2011. He embraced the role that took him all over the country installing, servicing and maintaining monitoring equipment for UK water companies. Just three years after starting, he was promoted to field service manager and took on the task of overseeing multiple service contracts.

More recently, taking advantage of the many career progression opportunities afforded by Detectronic, Olly made the move to the commercial side of the business and brought his on-site experience to the sales team as a sales engineer. As with his field service work, Olly excelled following the move and, as a result, has progressed to sales manager.

Commenting on his promotion, Detectronic’s managing director, Neil Butler, said: “Olly has a truly in-depth knowledge of the business – he’s Detectronic through and through and that shows in every project he undertakes.

“As comfortable installing the products we manufacture as he is selling them; Olly’s knowledge and unique insight are invaluable. What’s more, in the short space of time he’s spent in sales he’s delivered several multi-million-pound deals.”

“A key member of our growing team and, I’m sure I echo the sentiments of everyone at Detectronic, when I say, I look forward to supporting Olly to succeed even further and working alongside him for many more years to come.”
