The 26-year-old from Banbury is now responsible for a larger portfolio of clients in the event industry and he aims to reinforce De Boer’s industry reputation for superior service and product range within the temporary structure business. The company employs over 350 people worldwide and its work ranges from its lead in temporary accommodation for large events and festivals to airport baggage handling.

This is a great opportunity and something I’ve been striving for since I joined De Boer," said James Watts. "I’m really looking forward to working more closely and at a higher level with our clients. I’ve really enjoyed developing good relationships with clients and I intend to strengthen those links.”

Businesses that James has already liaised with include Powwow Events, Stage Electrics and Sygma Events Ltd. September 1 saw the start of his higher profile role among these clients.

John Cochrane, De Boer’s events' sales director said: “James has become a key member of our team and I’m really pleased to announce his promotion today. De Boer has been a leading supplier of temporary structures for more than 80 years, but it’s only by carefully picking and promoting young rising stars within the business that we can stay at the top.”
