Altus Group, a leading distributor of capital equipment in the UK and Ireland, is pleased to announce a significant addition to their team with the appointment of a new Applications Engineer. This strategic move underscores Altus's commitment to providing exceptional customer support in the UK.

He has previously held roles that entailed machine selection, implementation, and process improvement, showcasing his proficiency in optimising production processes for maximum efficiency.
Nick has already built a strong relationship with Altus, working with the company on past projects. He is also well-versed in the diverse range of brands within the Altus portfolio, such as Koh Young, Kolb, YJ Link, and Heller. This knowledge positions him as an ideal addition to the team due to his comprehensive understanding of customer pain points, industry dynamics, and the unique pressures of those operating in the field.

"Nick is precisely the high-calibre engineer we seek - someone with the experience, mind-set, and drive to provide complete solutions, not just support equipment. His in-depth knowledge of the full production environment will allow us to focus on the big picture and truly add value for our customers. I'm eager to see the contributions he'll make to our team."
Nick Hurrell added: "With years of experience collaborating with Altus from the customer perspective, I'm pleased to join the team to take on this exciting new challenge.
