Fabric structures specialist Rocklyn expands with the appointment of Alex Begyinah

Alternative structures specialist, Rocklyn – part of main construction and civil engineering contractor, McLaughlin & Harvey – has appointed a new business development manager to bolster the company’s presence in the industrial sector.

Alex Begyinah, who will be based in the firm’s Birmingham office, brings over ten years of sales and business development experience across construction supply chains and modular building solutions. He will focus on expanding reach and driving growth in industrial markets through developing key accounts, generating new business opportunities and managing long-term client relationships. 

Operating across the UK and Ireland, Rocklyn supplies design and build services for bespoke air domes, semi-permanent and permanent covered structures, padel courts and specialist steelwork solutions to the sport, education, industrial, aviation and defence sectors.

With an already strong presence in the sports and padel space, Rocklyn is targeting the industrial sector as it eyes further long-term growth.

Speaking about his appointment, Alex said: “What attracted me to Rocklyn was the genuine passion for what the business does and the opportunity to be involved in larger, more complex projects alongside a major contractor.

“In my new role, I’m looking forward to attending industry events, identifying collaboration opportunities, driving internal engagement and building strong relationships with new and existing clients and partners. Rocklyn has huge growth potential and I’m excited to play a part in expanding its reach from both a geographic and sector perspective.”

Gareth Howe, operations director at Rocklyn, said: “Alex’s experience working with stakeholders across a range of sectors and his extensive modular construction knowledge made him the ideal fit for this role. As we continue to expand Rocklyn’s focus from sport to industrial projects, Alex will play a pivotal part in driving visibility and spurring growth in what is a key sector for the business moving forward.”

Within the industrial sector, Rocklyn delivers rapid-install structures to support the manufacturing, warehousing and logistics operations of businesses that require a temporary expansion during peak periods or reliable cover during facility upgrades.
