September 2, 2021

Elcometer Ltd, leading manufacturer of high quality inspection equipment, has announced the appointment of Jerry Tan as General Manager for Elcometer Asia.

Jerry joins Elcometer following a 25 year career in sales and marketing across the ASEAN region, previously working as General Manager for Byrne Asia in China. After taking up his new position on April 1st, Jerry is hoping to strengthen the Elcometer Asia team with his skills in strategic leadership, business development and distribution management.

The appointment comes after Andy Foo, former General Manager, made the decision to retire after over 30 years of dedication and many successes in building Elcometer Asia. To ensure a smooth transition, Jerry will be working alongside Andy until the end of the year.

Michael Sellars, Managing Director of Elcometer said: “The company extends its warmest welcome to Jerry; I trust that, together, we will significantly grow Elcometer’s business in the coming years, through the forging of stronger partnerships and mutual cooperation.”

Before commencing his role at the Singapore office, Jerry spent a month at the Elcometer global headquarters in Manchester, UK to undergo in-depth product training, understand the day-to-day running of the business and learn the customer first company ethos.

Jerry Tan commented: “I am incredibly proud to be a part of the Elcometer’s family now, and excited to work closely with all colleagues and valued partners, to ensure Elcometer is the most respected and preferred brand for inspection, laboratory and blasting equipment in South East Asia and China.”
