Ray Lloyds appointed Contracts Director by British Harlequin

British Harlequin plc is pleased to announce that Ray Lloyds has been appointed Harlequin’s Contracts Director. Ray has worked in the flooring industry for over 30 years, gaining a wealth of knowledge and expertise and what he doesn’t know about flooring isn’t worth knowing! 

Ray began his career as an electronics engineer at Visionhire, where after seven years he was promoted to managing the 35 strong service department. During this stage of his career Ray taught evening classes in practical electronics at both West Kent College and Wandsworth College. But the family firm was calling with Ray’s father keen for him to join him in the flooring business where in 1980 he began working alongside his dad installing commercial and domestic flooring. 

When Ray started working for Harlequin in 1994 it was as a sub-contractor, which led to a permanent move in 2004 and appointment as the company’s first Contracts Manager. A move that also brought on board the young apprentice floor layers he had trained and who are still part of the Harlequin team today. 

Ray’s wealth of experience and expertise make him a valuable member of staff who is always pleased to impart his knowledge.
