Industry supplier Keyline has announced two new appointments to the business.

Paul Beaman has been selected as the company's new Managing Director (MD) while Andrew Matthewman has joined as National Account Manager.

With over 30 years' experience in the industry, Mr Beaman has taken over following the departure of Kieran Griffin, who has become MD at BSS.

Mr Beaman has worked at Keyline for two years, having joined as Head of Category in July 2015 becoming Regional Director for the Midlands in April 2016 and most recently working as the company's Commercial Director.


Speaking on his new role, Mr Beaman said: "Where Keyline is heading is extremely exciting and I am looking forward to continuing to drive our success in what is an incredibly competitive and constantly evolving industry.  The work we have done in the last four years ensures we have a great platform to continue to build on becoming the ‘first choice' for civils and drainage materials with our customers."

Elsewhere, Mr Matthewman is joining the company following seven years as a National Contract Manager for plastic drainage provider, Polypipe Civils.

He will be responsible for overseeing and managing national contractor accounts across the UK.

Mr Matthewman said: "The opportunities at Keyline to grow and develop are extensive so I am very excited about what lies ahead. The company has an enviable reputation for product and service delivery and I am keen to continue to drive this and maximise opportunities as much as possible."
