Upsolar, a provider of PV modules, has announced the addition of two members to its UK-based team. The company has appointed Bob Mills to the role of National Sales Manager and Stuart Tandy as Key Account Manager.
As National Sales Manager, Bob Mills is responsible for growing all sales channels within the United Kingdom at Upsolar. Mills comes to Upsolar with more than a decade of experience in the international solar market. Prior to joining the company, Mills served as Sales Manager for SCHOTT Solar in the UK and North America. Mills gained Engineering Qualifications from Sheffield Polytechnic, now Hallam University
"Having been on the front lines of solar for many years, I am encouraged by the dedication and ingenuity demonstrated by the entire Upsolar team," said Mills. "I look forward to digging in with one of the market's most promising module providers and serving the UK's rapidly growing PV market."
Upsolar's new Key Account Manager, Stuart Tandy, also comes to Upsolar from SCHOTT Solar, where he served as a UK Sales Manager. Tandy was previously an Account Manger for global electronics and electrical engineering company Siemens, where he managed the distribution of energy-efficient heating controls.
