Will Langley takes the helm at Reader

Reader Limited has announced the appointment of Mr William A. Langley as the company's Managing Director, effective 1st October 2015.

Will's appointment at just 20 years of age comes almost exactly 40 years to the day after Will's father, Group Chairman Mr Tony Langley, established the business that is today Langley Holdings PLC at the same age. Four decades on, the company bearing the family name has grown into a highly successful industrial group employing over 4000 people worldwide.

Based in the UK, Reader produces and packs a range of blended cementitious materials used in the civil engineering and DIY sectors. Will assumes full P&L responsibility at the business, which he expects to grow significantly in the next few years. He joined Reader in January 2015 and has been instrumental in securing some £5 million of parent company investment in new premises and plant which are expected to come on stream Q2 '16.

Good luck Will!
