Northern role
21st August 2018

HOPPE (UK) has appointed Rick Corkhill as the door and window business development manager for the north.

Rick is joining HOPPE (UK) from ERA where he was also a business development manager, bringing with him over two decades of experience working in the industry.

He started out at Coleman Plastics (then part of Travis Perkins) in 1994, supplying plumbers, heating engineers, builders, roofers, window manufacturing companies and window installers. From there he moved to Premier Profiles and has remained within the fenestration industry ever since.

Rick said: “My experience within the construction and fenestration industries means I understand the typical problems and barriers that HOPPE (UK) customers face and can therefore give them the best hardware solution. This is particularly important at this time, when the correct specification and supply of building products – and especially anything related to fire safety, security or accessibility – is under so much scrutiny.”
