James Bumphrey | UK Service Manager

Describe your typical day to day role:

The beauty of my job is that there is no typical day, every day is different! One day I could be assisting an engineer from one of our dealers with a technical fault, the next day I could be helping my sales colleagues with a demonstration from our large product offering, from a EasyCut Mower to a BiG X!

What do you enjoy the most about your job?

The most enjoyable part of my job is meeting new people and creating great relationships with them, this might be with customers or new members of our ever expanding dealer network - great people are key to our success. I also thoroughly enjoy working with BiG Pack balers!

Most memorable moment whilst part of the Krone team?

My most memorable moment so far working at Krone UK was Scotgrass, we delivered a fantastic working demonstration of our complete product range in very challenging conditions, from the setup through to the last demo run, everyone worked together and we delivered a flawless show to 1000’s of spectators!

Noel Clough | Warehouse Manager

Describe your typical day to day role:

No two days are the same which is what I love about my job. Our warehouse and parts offering is always evolving from stocking a wider range of parts lines to repositioning stock to make room for increasing quantities of our most popular picks. We sell over 33,000 replacement mower blades a year within the UK!

It’s my responsibility to make sure our warehouse runs as efficiently as possible to ensure that parts are available and orders are dispatched quickly - especially during season! They say variety is the spice of life and my job certainly delivers!

Most memorable moment whilst part of the Krone team?

I have worked for Krone UK since the daughter company opened in 2009. After all this time my most memorable moment will still be from the launch party and watching Bernard Krone himself doing the traditional opening of the beer barrel. It's great to see how far the company has come and grown over the past 14 years!

Holly White | Marketing Executive

Describe your typical day to day role:

My role at Krone UK is very varied, no two days are the same...From managing our social media channels and content, producing artwork for print collateral,working closely with our dealer network and not forgetting attending shows and events across the country to improve the Krone brand!

What do you enjoy the most about your job?

I joined the Krone UK team in October 2022 and since then there has been so many opportunities that I’ve been involved with. The most enjoyable part of my job is helping co-ordinate shows such as LAMMA, The Highland Show and The Royal Welsh and seeing our ideas come to life! Its great to also work with a team that are passionate about the krone brand and our products.

Most memorable moment whilst part of the Krone team?

A highlight of my time at Krone so far, was when I got the chance to work in Germany with the marketing team which was a great experience! I think another memorable and proud moment would be recently executing our Dealer Conference for our dealer network inline with LAMMA Show. It was great to see our UK dealer network on our stand before the show learning about our new products and innovations.

Craig Bryson | UK Sales Manager

Describe your typical day to day role:

Each day can be very different but I spend most of my days working closely with local dealers to assist with demonstrations or customer enquiries. I also deal with pricing up large machinery and the availability for dealers in my area.

What do you enjoy the most about your job?

For me it has to be meeting new people and learning about different farming and contracting operations across the country. I also enjoy attending the shows, it's a great way to showcase our wide variety of products - especially at LAMMA!

Most memorable moment whilst part of the Krone team?

There is almost to many to choose from! From a personal point it would be selling my first BiG M which was a massive achievement. From a team perspective it would have to be attending Agritechnica in 2019, this was a great team trip to learn about new products and get to know my colleagues!
