Amir Reske, who has been Managing Director of premium surface specialist Caesarstone in the UK since it opened its own warehouse in Britain in 2016, is leaving at the end of August.

Amir joined the company in 2016 (read his comments at that time here) and was responsible for establishing Caesarstone in the UK and Ireland, opening three distribution centres – in London, Manchester and Dublin.

He will now return to his native Israel to take on a new role.

Amir says: “Caesarstone gave me an opportunity to build a business from the ground up, set and implement the growth strategy, and promote it as a leading UK brand – and for that I will always be grateful. I have been privileged to work with a brilliant team, some of whom started with me at the very beginning and are still employed by Caesarstone, and I am very proud of the culture that we created within the organisation.”

His replacement is yet to be announced.
