Access Platform Sales (APS) is excited to announce that Tom Heasman has joined the team as South West Area Sales and Key Account Manager.
A Strong Technical and Sales Background
Tom has been part of the access industry since he was 16, bringing a wealth of hands-on and commercial experience.
He began his career as an engineer with A-Plant, building a strong technical foundation and gaining invaluable on-site knowledge.
He went on to spend over three years specialising in spider lift sales at Elite Access, developing a deep understanding of customer requirements and machine applications.
In 2017, Tom progressed to JLG Industries, further expanding his industry expertise and in 2019 he moved into a sales role.
This combination of engineering know-how and sales experience means Tom truly understands both the machines and how they are used on site.
Although he’s well-known in the Hinowa spider lift and tree surgery markets, Tom’s experience with JLG and other access platforms means he has a broad knowledge of booms, scissor lifts, low-level access equipment and more.
This makes him well-placed to support APS customers across the entire range.
In his new role, Tom will be helping customers across the South West with straightforward advice, fast quotations and building long-term relationships.
Tom said:
“Joining APS at such an exciting time for the business is a great opportunity. The company has a strong reputation and clear growth plans, and I’m looking forward to helping customers find the right solutions for their work.”
APS Director Andy Bray added:
“Tom’s combination of technical expertise and sales experience makes him a fantastic addition to the team. He understands the machines and the market, and we’re confident he’ll strengthen our presence in the South West.”
Based in Gosport near Portsmouth with his wife and four children, Tom keeps busy outside of work with running, gym training, paddleboarding, skiing and live music.
APS is looking forward to the energy and experience Tom brings to the team.
