With the power rental market constantly evolving, Finning Power Rental has announced the strategic appointment of Garry Taylor to drive sales growth. In response to increasing customer demand for flexible, sustainable power solutions, the new Sales Manager for Finning's temporary power business will focus on expanding market reach and strengthening customer relationships across the UK.

By applying a data-driven and analytical approach to revenue generation, as well as focusing on operational logistics, Taylor will be crucial to the rapid expansion of the sales team and growing power rental division.

Power generation has transformed rapidly over the past few years, with more sustainable options in greater demand as pressure increases to reduce emissions.

The chance to be involved in shaping the future of the industry through technological developments and sustainability initiatives is the challenge I’ve always wanted. I’ve been putting my finger on the pulse at Finning, gaining oversight of the commercial strategy and the operations of the sales team, as well as the technical engineers who provide the installations. We want to be the go-to supplier in the power rental market, so ensuring high performance of systems and outstanding customer service across the board is crucial to growing our commercial success.

“The most interesting side of this industry is the constant technological advancements. The focus isn’t just on more sustainable options, but also benefits such as digital integration which is very popular today. We offer smart monitoring for all our generator sets , battery storage units and fuel tanks. This enables us to carry out remote diagnostics, which means better efficiency and reliability monitoring of our systems.

“Emergency resilience planning is also key for our customers right now. Our teams provide critical support within sectors such as health care and infrastructure, ensuring minimal downtime through rapid response solutions. The fast-paced developments of the power rental industry keep it commercially interesting, and I’m excited to see where the business’ expansion takes us in terms of new business opportunities, new sectors, and stronger relationships with our current clients.”
