Roland DG UK COO Brett Newman moves to Hybrid Services

Brett Newman has left his position as Roland DG UK COO and joined exclusive UK and Ireland Mimaki distributor Hybrid Services in the newly created role of chief operations manager.

Newman, who took up the new position on Monday, 2 October, is responsible for Hybrid’s day-to-day operations, and is based at its Cheshire offices. He said of the move: “Mimaki’s reputation as an innovator and the scope of its current and future product portfolio were major factors in taking the new role at Hybrid. No other manufacturer consistently delivers products into so many areas of the print industry and I’m delighted to be joining Hybrid at such an exciting time; helping our reseller partners and end users benefit from Mimaki’s latest technology.” “We look forward to drawing on Brett’s many years of experience and industry knowledge,” added Hybrid director, Peter Mitchell. “His role will encompass all facets of the business, but with a specific focus on our sales and service offering, he will be central to Hybrid and Mimaki’s continued growth.”
