As part of its expansion plans for the UK and Ireland, luxury kitchen brand Poggenpohl UK has appointed Scott Rotchell as sales director.
He will oversee all retail sales within the company’s owned showrooms, with managerial and operational responsibilities and be second to managing director.
Rotchell began working with Poggenpohl in August 2011, straight from university, where he studied BA(Hons) Product Design at Nottingham Trent.

His first role was technical designer in the Wigmore Street studio and became a sales designer for the same showroom.
In February 2016, Rotchell moved onto the management team, looking after training, showroom refurbishments and operational projects.
Two years later, he was promoted to dealer manager for the UK & Ireland, tasked with the growth and expansion of the independent retail network, a post which he has held for just over six and a half years.
Poggenpohl UK managing director Sharon Wallis commented: “Scott has always been a conscientious member of the team, working his way through the ranks due to his commitment to colleagues, the brand as a whole and his sheer determination to succeed.
“The role of sales director is the next natural step for Scott where he will oversee all selling teams in the UK market for Poggenpohl owned stores.
“I am personally delighted to promote Scott, his dedication will drive success for us all, and I know the entire company will welcome this appointment as he’s such a highly valued member of the team. Congratulations, Scott!”
