Joining as Victorian branch/sales manager, Darren Roe brings 17 years of graphic arts experience to the Starleaton team. After completing a prepress apprenticeship, Roe moved into sales and has had successful stints with Edward Keller, Currie Group, CPI Graphics and Anitech.

Most recently, Roe was account manager for screen and display markets with the Halifax Vogel Group. Since 2008, he has also served as a committee member of the SGIAA (Screen Print Association) – Southern Region.

Commenting on his appointment, Roe says, “Starleaton offers a strong product range that covers the start of the graphic process right through to end. I am very enthusiastic about my role and the potential growth of the branch.”

Also new on the Melbourne payroll is technical sales specialist Trevor Klei whose experience dates back to 1982 when he joined Aarque/Anitech. After a 20-year spell there, Klei joined iMedia selling both solvent and aqueous wide format solutions. He is now representing Starleaton’s range of wide format consumables.

Also commenting, Gary Smith, director of Starleaton says, “Experience counts for a lot and there wouldn’t be two more experienced people on the Melbourne wide format graphics scene than Darren and Trevor. We are delighted to have them on board and wish them well as they get around the trade wearing their Starleaton hats.”
