Rochester-based large-format print specialist PressOn has appointed Nick Lake to the new role of key project manager to help meet the demands of its rapidly growing customer base and to explore new business opportunities.
Lake will be responsible for project management across a number of markets and ensure the co-ordination of the most complex, multi-faceted projects. In particular, his experience will enable him to advise on design and fabrication solutions for bespoke retail and visual merchandising projects.
He has also been tasked with expanding the events and exhibitions sectors of the PressOn portfolio.
“I have taken an entrepreneurial approach to my career to date and it was a meeting of minds with the management team at PressOn. I’m particularly looking forward to offering fabrication and manufacturing expertise in the new role which will help take PressOn into new directions for their business,” said Lake.
“I have worked in pre-press for the litho-print industry and ran my own company for 15 years. More recently I have overseen stand design and build at exhibitions and have seen a shift towards experiential installations in recent years. I’m really keen to help PressOn use new materials and to focus on producing ground breaking creative solutions for clients.”
Andy Wilson, co-founding MD at PressOn, added: “Nick’s skill set is really unique in the industry and his role is essential to achieving our forecast growth and strategic direction for the next three-five years. Our projects are getting more and more complex and his expertise will be invaluable.”
