New Northern sales manager focuses on care homes, hospitals & rehab facilities for 360-bathroom solution
Aiming to increase uptake of its new 360-bathroom solution, Gainsborough Specialist Bathrooms, part of the Gainsborough Healthcare Group, has bolstered its service offering with the appointment of Kate Gilley as its Northern Regional Sales Manager.
Boasting over three decades of success in account management, the specialist bathroom provider says it purposely selected from outside the industry to inject a “fresh and dynamic approach – leveraging proven ideas from international vertical sectors such as software, retail security and material handling.”
Having spent three decades operating in a range of industries and with first-hand experience of property development, bathroom installation, M&E contracts and NHS care services through family connections, Kate will work with care homes, hospitals & rehab facilities in the North and Scotland.
“A move into the Gainsborough Healthcare Group has come at the right time for me. The business is evolving at pace which is a tempo I thrive within, as new opportunities arise and further openings need to be cultivated.,” commented Kate.
“I was introduced to Gainsborough by one of my relatives who felt this organisation would be the ideal fit for my skill set, they were right. The team have all been fantastic since I joined and clients have been extremely positive. Visiting the impressive Gainsborough bath manufacturing plant for the first time was a memorable experience.”
Recently, the Group rebranded its ‘Gainsborough Specialist Bathing’ division to ‘Gainsborough Specialist Bathrooms,’ alongside the launch of its new 360-bathroom solution service, G360.
Covering all aspects of specialist bathroom implementation, from concept to completion and servicing, the new G360 service is aimed at care homes, hospitals and rehabilitation units and sees Gainsborough account managers working closely with its clients’ internal resources
Kate’s remit will include communicating Gainsborough’s new turnkey solution to the market and emphasising the associated commercial and clinical benefits of adopting G360, says the company.
“G360 services are proving popular with my contacts as they offer bathroom turnkey solutions, from pre-enablement works and design through to install and beyond,” explained Kate.
“I had previously seen several bathroom projects completed by non-specialist builders which lacked quality and precision. We are about providing durable, quality solutions that deliver sustainable care, CQC hygiene excellence and utmost safety – an offering I am proud to showcase.
“Equally the efficiency, ergonomic and hygiene-related innovations within Gainsborough baths are outstanding. I will be championing these factors whilst encouraging greater involvement from frontline care staff in the decision-making process and underlining Gainsborough’s bather-centric ethos.”
