For the past three years, as the Operations Director for IBMG’s roofing division in the South, Tansley has overseen the smooth integration of Roofing Gear’s three branches, Independent Roofing Supplies’ three branches, and MS Roofing’s five branches into the IBMG portfolio.

Allun Pittingale, COO of IBMG said: “I am delighted to announce that  Adrian Tansley has been promoted to divisional managing director for roofing.

“Adrian has ambitious plans for the roofing division, while also remaining pragmatic in his approach. He is highly regarded by branch managers throughout the IBMG branch network, respected by the senior team, and passionate about this business and its people. 

Tansley commented: “With four decades in roofing, I am excited about the plans for further growth for IBMG’s roofing division. A big part of this is developing and providing ambitious career paths for our people within this division.

“There is no doubt that we have a lot of talent in our ranks, and together with our extensive network of roofing branches we will continue to provide roofers with our extensive range of roofing materials supported by our remarkable customer service.”
