Teesside-based installer ACEDA reports the opening of a Newcastle office and the launch of its Fire division. The firm has appointed Chris Pattinson as Chief Revenue Officer.
Chris entered the industry in 2013 when he stepped away from a marketing career to take over the family fire and security business. He grew the company and later led its sale to a national fire and security provider, where he continued in a senior role. In his new role, Chris will head sales, business development, and client relationships.
Chris said: “ACEDA has an incredible track record in delivering high-quality projects for major clients across the UK. With our new Newcastle office, the launch of our Fire Division, and our BAFE accreditation, we’re perfectly positioned to expand our service offering, enter new sectors, and build long-term partnerships with clients. My focus will be on accelerating our growth trajectory and delivering a significant increase in recurring revenue over the coming years.”
ACEDA Managing Director, Nick Harker, added: “Chris’s appointment marks the next stage in ACEDA’s evolution. His expertise and leadership will help us strengthen our market position, broaden our service portfolio, and execute on our ambitious five-year growth plan.”
