Our strength is our people
Paul Errington, Managing Director
Paul
has worked in the tool and plant hire industry since 1991. His route
to the rental industry was long and varied. Having attained an HND
in Business Studies at Plymouth Polytechnic, he worked for a manufacturer
of garage equipment, initially as a sales engineer in Kent and London,
and later as Export Manager. In 1977, he moved to an American competitor,
and spent five years travelling North Africa, the Middle East and
parts of Europe seeking new distributors and motivating the existing
ones.
He became self-employed in 1982 when he took on the Reading area
franchise for an overnight parcels company, and set up his own same-day
parcel delivery service. Both businesses were run from the Brick
Kiln site in Tadley prior to the launch in 1991 of County Hire.
Paul was born in Plymouth, Devon. He is married to Susannah, and
has lived in Tadley since 1978. His spare time interests include
motor sport, gardening, dogs, Plymouth Argyle and keeping reasonably
fit.
