The door hardware and furniture manufacturer Allegion has appointed James Keith as end user solution strategy manager for its UK business to cover architects and end users.
Keith joins the firm after 13 years in product, brand and category management roles across automative, health and safety and home improvement industries. His previous roles have seen him engage in project-led work, managing full portfolios and implementing key product roadmaps.
Keith’s role will involve end users and the challenges they face, to targeted vertical markets, such as healthcare and education.
Marc Lengahan, commercial director of Allegion UK and Ireland, said, “We’re thrilled to welcome Keith as part of the End User Business Development Team. He will play an integral role in making Allegion a trusted advisor in the marketplace – in part, by providing industry thought leadership to develop and strengthen connections with associations.”
