Alistair Janson joins Kocurek Excavators sales team

Kocurek Excavators Ltd, well known for its special high reach excavator conversions, has appointed Alistair Janson to the company's sales team, where he will work with Ron Callan with responsibility for global sales of the company's modified excavators and attendant long and high reach boom designs.

Alistair brings with him more than 30 years of experience with Volvo Construction Equipment, Liebherr and Caterpillar (through former UK Cat dealer H Leverton Ltd), with much of this time spent specialising in the demolition sector. He said of his new position: "In all of my previous roles, I have worked alongside the team at Kocurek and have always admired both their product and the way they do business. Although they are a world-beater in their field, it still feels like a family business in which the customers are the most valuable asset."

Kocurek general manager Brian Carroll said: "Alistair has continually demonstrated an in-depth understanding and knowledge of the demolition sector that will make him a key addition to our tem. He is well respected across the industry and he already knows our product offering extremely well. In many ways, he is the perfect addition to our team."
