“Over the past two years, we have looked to build on our position as UK market leaders with stone fabrication tooling and solutions, as well as capitalizing on previously identified opportunities in newer markets in the U.S. and Europe,” said New Managing Director Clayton Worsley. “Mark joins us with over 25 years of experience in the stone industry, and his specialism in operations will allow us to elevate our service and support to customers both here and abroad. Duncan has been a vital part of our growth to where we are in the UK, and his elevation to this new role will allow him to further optimize processes within the technical team, delivering the ultimate level of service to our customers.”

“These senior structural changes at Stonegate are a real statement of intent about our ambitions,” said Chief Executive of Operations Graham Hazell. “Our growth since 2019 has been rapid, and while we have managed to keep pace with it, and continue delivering world-leading tooling, support and advice, for us to move to the next level, we decided that a hierarchical reshuffle was essential. We are thrilled with the changes and with how it widens up our scope of opportunity. With Clayton leading the business on a day-to-day basis, Mark bringing decades of specialized experience and Duncan now having the mandate to provide next-level insight into the future of stone fabrication, we feel we are incredibly well-placed to bring our passion for excellence to the UK, U.S. and Europe.”
