IAIN SANDS  Head of Aggregate Sales

I started with Waltet in 2018 and I’ve never looked back. Having dealt with Waltet as a customer and knowing the great reputation they had within the industry, when the opportunity came up to join the team I jumped at the chance. Waltet has its employees at the core of its business, and lets face it without the commitment and dedication from them and then we wouldn’t be the business we are today.

My Fact: I always wanted to be a Stage or Screen star when I was growing up, and in fact I did Performing Arts at College and spent every waking hour in various Amateur Dramatic Groups, playing roles from Fat Sam in ‘Bugsy Malone’ to a Dame in ‘Alice In Wonderland’. I suppose that’s why being the Sales Manager I get to be the centre of attention at every given opportunity.
