Brick manufacturer Wienerberger has appointed Keith Barker as commercial director for its UK operation.

Barker will take control of the sales and commercial activities for all of the Wienerberger brands within the UK and Ireland. His appointment is part of a strategic reorganisation of the UK and Ireland operation and sees the brick and roof tile activities brought under one joint Holding Board.
Barker was previously at Wavin, having been sales director of Hepworth Plumbing Products when it was acquired by Wavin.
