Robert Read has joined Allcooper Group as the Gloucester-based installer’s new Engineer Training Manager.
Robert is to focus on technical training of the company’s 25-plus engineers based across south and central England. He will be liaising with manufacturers on bespoke training courses for the firm’s technical team. Robert has over 20 years’ engineering experience; the last eight years at installer Crown Security & Fire Limited, based in Swindon where Robert lives with his family. Robert was Senior Engineer at Crown. He has worked on some major projects for private clients and businesses, including a fully integrated solution for the most expensive private estate in the UK.
Roman Cooper, Executive Director at Allcooper said: “We have always invested heavily in the training of our engineers to ensure our customers get the highest quality advice and workmanship available. With technology moving at such a fast pace and a large team of engineers now to manage the training for, we felt it was time to create a role specifically to further upskill our workforce.
“Robert is perfectly qualified to do this because of his extensive technical knowledge going all the way through to complex, blended solutions using sophisticated IT platforms.”
Robert, pictured, said: “It is fantastic to be given the responsibility and backing for such an important area within a technology-driven business. I am looking forward to helping Allcooper Group’s engineers build on their solid knowledge to remain at the forefront of the industry, and give our customers high-grade technical support.”
