Corns is new Interlevin MD

UK: Jonathan Corns has been appointed as the new managing director of Interlevin Refrigeration, following the company’s recent acquisition by Tefcold.

Corns comes with a background from both large corporate and SME in a diverse range of industries. The 44-year-old has a degree in engineering and was previously MD of cleaning equipment company Tennant.

“We are very happy to announce Jon as our new managing director for Interlevin Refrigeration. Jon comes with a strong commercial background from positions in sales, marketing and most recently managing director,” said CEO Jesper Kirkeby Hansen. “Knowing that we have strong industry knowledge in-house already, we decided to seek a candidate with a different industry background. One that can challenge how we look at things and how we work. But always with the aim of improving our customer experience.”
