Mel Henry, the Managing Director at VEGA Controls, in the UK, is stepping-down from his role after 29 years. In this time he has led the company through a period of sustained growth and developed a UK level and pressure measurement business renowned for innovation, founded on quality and service. “Now’s the time to retire and hand over to the next generation.”

After a career in process instrumentation that has spanned nearly 40 years - Mel added, “It’s time for me to focus on the golf and fishing!”. Ray Tregale is taking over from Mel, from his position of Southern Regional Sales Manager of 13 years. Ray has over 33 years experience in the instrumentation business, in roles from apprentice to technical sales and into management. Ray said, “This is a challenge and an honour for me to be taking over from Mel, he has established one of the most successful and respected companies in the level and pressure measurement sector.”

He concluded; “My priority will be to continue the customer service we are known for and sustain our strong growth across a broad range of industries.” Graeme Cross, previously the Northern regional manager, will now assume the role of overall UK Sales Manger. The VEGA ‘Family’ bid Mel Henry farewell, with their best wishes and good luck for his ‘busy’ retirement!
