Wilkinson is a seasoned machine tools sales professional and joined Mills in mid-July 2015 following a short hand-over period with previous business manager Tony Cornelia who has now retired after 25 years in post.
Wilkinson is well qualified to pick up the mantle. He has worked in the engineering and machine tool sectors for over 25 years and has considerable production and applications experience as well as area sales management credentials gained at a number of leading machine tool companies.
Says Wilkinson: "Mills CNC is a dynamic and successful company. The East Midlands is a strategically important region for Mills and boasts a large and loyal installed customer base.
"I am looking forward to the challenge of growing sales and of increasing Mills' market share in the region still further."
Wilkinson points out that new machines including the SMX 3100 multi-tasking mill-turn machines and VCF 850 5AX (5-axis) machining centres will be on show at an open house in November at Mills CNC's headquarters in Leamington.
