Rearo has appointed James Barrett-Bunnage as its new marketing manager. James will be instrumental in implementing a comprehensive marketing strategy designed to significantly expand Rearo's commercial business.

James brings a wealth of experience to Glasgow-based Rearo, spanning both commercial and retail sectors. His extensive background encompasses innovative marketing, digital marketing, and brand positioning, with a track record of launching new products, expanding market reach, and driving revenue growth. His appointment will see him focusing on a multi-faceted approach to marketing, differentiating Rearo's communication strategies between domestic and commercial markets.
James said: “I am delighted to be joining Rearo at this exciting time for the company, whose ambitions align perfectly with my passion for innovative solutions and my desire to see impactful results from marketing campaigns. Visually appealing materials are crucial for conveying brand identity and making a strong impression. I am confident that my creative background can help to elevate Rearo's visual communications, ensuring that all marketing materials reflect the high-quality and premium nature of the company's products.”
