Gary joined Cefco in October 2006 as a BDM, representing 4 of the companies that fall under the Cefco Group , F4P, Deluce, MCG & Levante. His areas were for all CEF branches in Scotland and also the Newcastle group. In 2009, Garys area was extended and he gained a further 2 CEF groups, now looking after all branches within Durham and Nelson groups , along with the other groups mentioned above. In May 2015, Gary was promoted to the National Sales Manager for the Cefco Group and now manages our team of professional BDMs who cover, F4P, Fusion lamps, Fusion Luminaires, Levanté and MCG Industrial. At this point Gary was still looking after the branches within 4 CEF groups. In May 2016 to present, Gary no longer has any CEF groups which he solely look after. Gary has now employed a new BDM to take over the groups he was looking after and this now freely allows Gary the time to concentrate on his job role as a National Sales Manager and supporting my BDM team out on the field.

Maurice showed an aptitude for motor control gear and quickly gained knowledge and confidence. After 1 year he was given the opportunity of looking after a number of groups in an external sales capacity . Maurice continued to take on more Groups and increase sales but also the profile of MCG in CEF. In 2001, Maurice was asked to join the team opening up the new MCG office in Edmonton, in North London as Office Manager. Following on from this, with a change in General Manager, it was decided that more focus should be put on the main distribution centre in Doncaster, which meant the closing of the external depots. It was decided that a presence was still required and so Maurice was asked to stay and become a full time sales engineer for the south of the UK. In 2006, Maurice was asked to consider moving to Ireland in an effort to help the growing CEF network which he accepted. As well as covering the 5 Cefco companies F4P , MCG , Levante , Fusion Lamps and Fusion Luminaires in North and Southern Ireland, Maurice took on the Isle of Man Branch, Jersey and Guernsey.

After studying for a BA (Hons) in Creative Writing at the University of Bedfordshire, Emily moved to Crawley to be closer to her family. The move happened to coincide with a new store opening within a toy company founded by her uncle and his business partner. Emily helped to develop the Croydon store from 2012 with a team of just four people. With only three existing stores at the time of opening, Emily played a crucial role in helping to develop the business as a whole. Within two years Emily took on the role of Assistant manager and then quickly stepped up as store Manager. After seven years the business is going strong with eight branches across multiple regions. The company has held “Independent retailer of the year” two years running and a special recognition award at the Toy industry awards. Emily had sole responsibility for complete store merchandising, stock ordering, staffing and event organising along with many other duties. In December 2018 Emily helped the branch set a new company record for highest sales achieved in one day, a record which was set the previous year in the same branch. It was with a heavy heart but with much excitement that Emily decided she needed a new challenge for her career and joined Cefco group in January 2019.
