With more than 15 years of experience in manufacturer sales, technology integration and strategic operational advisory roles, including in physical security procurement and specification writing for NZ Government organisations, Robbie joins the Wesco Anixter Enterprise team of subject matter experts, increasing Wesco Anixter’s value in delivering internal and external project support to partners and end user clients.
Robbie most recently served as Technical Sales Representative for a technology manufacturer in the Central Region, where he was also an internal lead advisor on high security projects.
