Lincoln contractor, Stirlin, has welcomed Jayne Southall to its team as business development manager.
The creation of the role marks a new era of expansion for Stirlin. For over 15 years, the company’s focus has been exclusively on serving private clients and joint venture development partners. However, this move signifies a strategic step toward embracing new opportunities with external clients.
With an impressive background as CEO of the Lincolnshire Showground spanning over a decade, Jayne brings with her an extensive network of contacts and important relationships across Lincolnshire.
In her new role as business development manager, Jayne will be strengthening important relationships with Stirlin’s clients and championing the company’s pursuit of external contracts.
Jayne’s career journey spans various domains, including sales, operational management, and financial responsibilities within the construction sector. Beginning her professional journey in the timber import industry, she later transitioned to the Lincolnshire Agricultural Society in 2006, taking on the role of finance and administration manager. Her dedication and expertise led her to rise to the role of CEO in 2011, where she was responsible for all aspects of the society’s commercial and charitable activities including overall responsibility for the Lincolnshire Show and the Showground Events Business.
Reflecting on her new role, Jayne shares: “I am delighted to embark on this journey as the business development manager at Stirlin. Having steered the Lincolnshire Showground through the pandemic, I decided it was time to look for a new challenge.
“I’m looking forward to the collaborative strides we will take together at Stirlin. I’m eager to reconnect with familiar faces and forge new connections to contribute to the company’s growth as it opens up to external contracting.”
Tony Lawton, Managing Director of Stirlin, says: “We are delighted to welcome Jayne as a valuable new addition to the Stirlin team. Jayne will play a pivotal role in Stirlin’s continued growth and fostering fresh opportunities. We’re looking forward to seeing where this next chapter will take Stirlin.”
