    <p><font size=”4″>OKI has raided the ranks of rival printer vendors to bolster its UK sales force.</font></p>
    <p><font size=”4″>The vendor has taken on seven new starters that have served stints at various competitors including HP, Brother, Canon and Epson.</font></p>
    <p><font size=”4″>This includes former HP luminary Tony Smith, who has joined OKI as head of end-user sales, and account managers Charlotte Wall and Ros Nyman.</font></p>
    </div>
    <p><font size=”4″>Meanwhile, Trina Harrington and Melanie Abiodun have joined as direct market reseller (DMR) account managers, while Phil Bushby and Fran Casella have been handed roles as reseller account managers.</font></p>
    <p><font size=”4″>OKI sales director Nick Munton departed in June after <a href=”http://www.channelweb.co.uk/crn-uk/news/1934734/oki-unveils-sales-director&#8221; target=”_blank” title=”OKI unveils sales director”>an 18-month stint </a>at the printer vendor, and his role has effectively been split into three.</font></p>
    <p><font size=”4″>Smith will helm the end-user side, while Simon Tetlow and Matt Ruskin have been promoted to head up the channel and DMR businesses, respectively.</font></p>
    <p><font size=”4″>OKI, which recently relocated its UK operations from Slough to Egham to cater for its expanding workforce, said the newbies were selected for their specialist print backgrounds and skills.</font></p>
    <p><font size=”4″>OKI’s UK marketing director, Graham Lowes, said: “We are delighted to welcome into the OKI team such well-regarded and established industry professionals who have the experience and knowledge to continue to drive our print offering forward.”</font></p>
