Our Team

Managing Director

Tom joined EOS on 1st October 2006 after 9 years with Nynas, the naphthenic oils manufacturer, in South Africa and the UK.

Tom has 30 years experience in the oil and chemical industries having worked for Mobil, Sasol, Sentrachem and Nynas before joining EOS. His qualifications include a degree in Chemistry and a Master’s degree in Business Administration (MBA).

As a Technical Sales Representative for Mobil Oil in South Africa, Tom was exposed to various grades of both paraffinic and naphthenic oils and greases in industrial applications including the supply of electrical oils to ABB’s local plant. With Nynas and EOS his experience has been focussed on commercial and technical support for the supply of naphthenic insulating, base and process oils. Over the years the standards and quality of the insulating oils have changed requiring a clear understanding of the miscibility and characteristics of the different oils to solve critical operational problems for customers.

“As the leading supplier, specialising in the offering of electrical oils and associated services to the electricity supply industry in the UK and now Continental Europe, we are well positioned to share our extensive technical- and service know-how to meet customer’s requirements in Europe. There is also an innovative approach to improving product and service expectations with our team of highly skilled and experienced personnel keen to assist customers.

The future for EOS is very exciting as we are implementing new innovative technologies and services to remain at the forefront of the industry in offering cost-effective methods to treat oil-in-service and provide leading-edge products to retain our competitive edge across Europe.”

Sales Manager

Andy has been with EOS since its formation in 1999, having previously worked with one of EOS’ predecessors Carless Refining and Marketing Ltd.

He started his career as a Student Apprentice with the Central Electricity Generating Board (CEGB) combining on the job training with block release at Watford technical college where he gained a Higher National Diploma in electrical power engineering as well as enjoying first hand experience in power system maintenance and protection, power station operations and nuclear emergency training.

After completion of his studies Andy was employed as a third engineer within the Rayleigh transmission division eventually becoming a Senior Authorised Person responsible for maintenance on high voltage systems up to 400kV. It was whilst working for the transmission division of the CEGB (later became National Grid) that Andy first came across the electrical oil services industry using tankers and mobile processing unite to facilitate transformer maintenance.

Now with over 25 years working within the electrical oil industry, Andy is an ambassador for both the company and customers alike. Customers value Andy’s vast technical knowledge and expertise in the area, specifically his ability to communicate the often complex insulating oil processes in a simple and manageable way.

“The continued success of EOS comes down to the people we employ, a small but dedicated and enthusiastic team of both Area Managers and technical operations staff. It is our honest, open and professional approach which has led us to build loyal relationships with our customers. We’re dedicated to the future of recycling used insulating oil and look forward to seeing the company continue to grow into the next 50 years and beyond.”

Account Manager / Customer Services Manager

Tom joined EOS in 2010 as part of the Customer Services team, before being appointed Customer Services Manager the following year. In 2014, Tom was given account management responsibilities for our high voltage contractors, which means he now splits his time between these dual roles. Tom is responsible for maintaining and developing working relationships with many of our customers, but specifically our contractor customers working on high voltage networks.

Tom works closely with our clients and during his time at EOS has gained excellent knowledge of their specific needs, from details about individual delivery locations to personnel requirements. It is this level of customer service and attention to detail that has allowed EOS to develop strong long-term relationships with many of our clients. Tom is proud to lead a team that provides a complete, quality service, from the contact customers have with office-based staff, all the way through to their experience with the EOS technical teams on-site.

“We’ve got the right people at EOS, a team of experts passionate about what they do. Our balance of innovators and pragmatists ensure our processes and services not only meet our customers’ needs but also surpass our strict quality and safety controls.

It’s our aim to give our customers a constant point of contact to discuss any oil-related matters. What’s key to EOS is that we will always prioritise giving our customers the most suitable advice for their specific situation over making a quick sale. Our genuine and trusted technical advice, training and information will always reflect that.”
