The UK’s leading supplier of fire suppression equipment, Roecliffe-based Ardent, has made two new appointments to strengthen its team.

David Sargent, who lives in Bafferton near York, has joined the accounts team as an assistant. This is David’s first job since leaving the University of Gloucestershire in the summer where he graduated with a BA (Hons) in Business Management, Financial Management and Accounting.

The second appointment is John Swinton, who has joined the company as a field engineer responsible for installing and servicing fire protection equipment in EMEA. He has been in this line of work for 18 months and was no stranger to Ardent when he joined them, having already worked for the company through a subcontractor.

Neil Crowther, Ardent’s managing director said: “John and David are two valuable additions to the team, which we’re strengthening as part of our business development strategy.”

Ardent is the UK’s largest independent fire protection company – a pure fire suppression specialist. As such, it is widely recognised as the expert in fire protection systems for vehicles, mobile plant, kitchens, data centres and other solutions. Founded in 1993, the privately owned company has over 500 customers worldwide and offers a world-class range of quality assured, branded fire suppression equipment. Ardent provides a unique service orientated package from initial enquiry to installation, accompanied by expert technical advice and product knowledge.
