He is to become part-owner and director of APS.
Mr Tindale joined Snorkel鈥檚 parent company, The Tanfield Group, in 2006 as it prepared to buy UpRight Powered Access. He has played an integral part in the development of the business over the past six years, including a key role in the transition to the Snorkel brand, the growth of Snorkel鈥檚 global distributor network and new product development.
Snorkel CEO Darren Kell said: 鈥淩ichard has been alongside me at the heart of Snorkel鈥檚 development for the past six years and we wish him the very best with his new venture.
鈥淩ichard鈥檚 key strengths included his ability to spot talent; his legacy at Snorkel is the superb sales infrastructure we now have in our distributors, district managers and regional sales managers. Snorkel moves forward, to enter a period of strong growth, with a strong team who have a clear vision for the future.鈥�
Mr Tindale said: 鈥淭he opportunity with APS will allow me to play a major part in the development of an organisation with great potential - and also participate in the ownership of the company.
鈥淚 feel the time is right because I have now seen the sales operation of Snorkel through the recent recessionary period, including the strong recovery of demand over the last 12 months. With the recent announcement of a 拢12m investment, the company's future growth is now secure.鈥�
