Edited by the Buildingtalk editorial team Jun 20, 2007

Dean+Bowes appoint new retail divisional managing director and contracts director.

ISG Dean+Bowes has strengthened its service offering, along with its senior management team, with the appointments of new retail divisional managing director, Andy West and contracts director, Peter Knowles.

Both candidates have a strong retail background which reflects the national fit-out and refurbishment specialist's strong presence and growing market share in the retail sector.

These appointments come as the company is preparing to launch an exciting new service for selected retailers who share ISG Dean+Bowes' values relating to environmental issues.

Andy joins ISG Dean+Bowes from PEL Interiors where he retained the position of group operations director.

Prior to that, he spent 12 years at Styles and Wood as a divisional managing director.

Andy's current remit is to take full responsibility for the delivery of all existing retail projects, deliver complete customer satisfaction and continue to develop the strategy which is aimed at achieving growth in overall targets.

With over 20 years' experience of retail construction, Peter has spent the majority of his career so far with Simons Construction where he has risen through the ranks from foreman to business development manager.

Both Peter and Andy have worked with a wide array of High Street names including Somerfield, Sainsburys, Boots, House of Fraser, Toys R Us, Homebase, Debenhams, Marks and Spencer, HSBC Retail Banking and McDonalds.

ISG Dean and Bowes MD Jim Parker comments: "Andy and Peter have the skill-set and experience we require to take our retail portfolio on to the next level".

"This is a very exciting time for the company as we are looking forward to launching service offerings which will be close to the heart of the retail sector and will redefine our role as the partner of choice for those who want to stay ahead of market trends." ISG Dean+Bowes currently lists T-Mobile, HSBC, Monsoon, Next, Primark and Woolworths among its blue-chip client base.
