Walker Filtration is pleased to announce the appointment of Peter Cottle as the company’s new Head of Supply Chain and Logistics.

At the start of 2021 Walker Filtration announced the appointment of Peter Cottle as the company’s new Head of Supply Chain and Logistics.

As a Member of the Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply, Peter has significant experience across all areas of the supply chain. He has a total of 15 years experience in the Compressed Air and Gas Industry. Peter has been part of the Walker Filtration team since 2019, initially joining as Supply Chain Manager with responsibility for the development of a supply chain capable of supporting the company through its continued growth.

In his new role, Peter joins the Senior Management Team, and will oversee all Supply Chain and Logistics activities for the business.

Peter said of his appointment “I’m delighted at the opportunity especially as it’s such exciting times at Walker Filtration. Furthermore, it’s great to see Supply Chain & Logistics being represented on the Senior Management Team. I think everyone will agree it has been challenging for every business over the last couple of years, in particular managing the impact of COVID and BREXIT which, for me, emphasises the importance of having a resilient and agile Supply Chain supporting our Customers. I have a brilliant team around me and together we continue to add value to make our business even more successful.”

Steve Bittle, Group General Manager, added “Peter’s appointment reflects the importance of effective Supply Chain and Logistics management and the role that it plays in our growth strategy. Supported by his team, Peter’s role will focus on maximising our full potential through global sourcing and efficient logistics for the Walker Filtration Group.”

Congratulations Peter on your appointment!
