B-DACS adds to management team

UK: Glasgow-based air conditioning contractor B-DACS has appointed Andy Ward as operations manager.

Ward joins the company from Kooltech, where he had spent the last two years as pre-sales air conditioning regional technical manager. He began his career in 2003 as an air conditioning engineer with Sparks Mechanical Services, spending nearly 14 years with the company, latterly as project manager. Leaving in 2016, he gained further project management experience with Morris & Spottiswood and Principal Cooling.  

In his new role, Ward will be responsible for managing B-DACS installation projects from pre-start to commissioning and assisting in the day-to-day operational running of the business.

This latest appointment follows the additions of sales director Steve Donnell and financial controller Lindsayanne Clarkson, who both joined the company in January.
