Stewart Russell has become head of sales for Innovate Logistics' recently launched ambient division.

Stewart has almost 20 years' experience in the industry, having worked previously as national account manager at Redirack, where he serviced a number of major blue chip companies.

In this new role, Stewart will focus on driving sales for the ambient brand, across both the storage and transport sectors.

"I've worked on quite a few Innovate projects over the past four years and in that time have watched its phenomenal growth," said Stewart.  "It's a fantastic opportunity for me to be involved with the ambient division from its start with my dedication and self motivation along with my experience in the industry, this can only lead to success and I'm looking forward to the challenge."

Pete Osborne, CEO of UK & Europe, added: "We've known Stewart for a number of years and are confident that he is the right man for the job - with his knowledge and expertise, we hope to see the division flourish."
