Experienced fire and security specialist Matt Hackworthy has been recruited as Business Development Manager for Securi-Guard Fire and Security.
With almost 17 years of experience in the industry, Matt will be assessing project tenders, as well as forging strong links with both the company’s existing client base and potential new customers across the region. A key element of his role will be to explore new business opportunities with electrical and mechanical contractors, who are involved in major construction projects and other developments region wide.
After completing a five year apprenticeship as an electrician in 2001, Matt has worked in a variety of roles within the security industry. Within four years of completing his training, he had been promoted to senior engineer and then project manager with a company in Plymouth, overseeing installation work for a number of clients, including Derriford Hospital and Plymouth University.
He joins Securi-Guard from a role in Exeter, where his responsibilities included managing the installation and servicing of security systems across the UK and throughout Europe.
