So consequently 1st March 2019 “marked” his 11th year of successive service. During that time there have been many positive changes at this family run business, not least the acquisition of the adjacent 38,000 square foot factory, increasing the company’s Head Office square footage of buildings on Wellington Road up to 56,000 square feet, plus all the land surrounding them.

Since Mark joined Hazlemere more than eleven years ago it has continued its ongoing policy of regularly investing in the latest most thermally efficient products and in technologically advanced CNC machinery in its modern factory premises on Cressex Business Park and in highly competent experienced designers, technical managers, surveyors, project managers, fabricators, fitters and service engineers.

When Mark first joined the business, he was not a Board Member, but was since promoted to become a Director of the business in February 2014. Under Mark’s tenure as Marketing Director, he has grown the Marketing Department, and is ably supported by the very talented Marketing Manager, Claire Ramsden and the team she has assembled to help promote the many commercial aspects of the business.

On 16th December 2014, Hazlemere Window Company Ltd became Which? Trusted Traders, and then in April 2015 became Members of the Glass and Glazing Federation. In January 2016 Mark Austin was elected to the position of Chairman of the GGF Windows and Doors Group, co-Chairing Joint Meetings of the GGF Conservatory Association and Windows and Doors Group with Phil Goult from Anglian, who is the Chairman of the Conservatory Association.

In the Autumn of 2017 Mark was unanimously elected as Vice-President of the Glass and Glazing Federation, a position that made him a GGF Board Director. This is a very prestigious position both for Mark and Hazlemere Commercial, as from 1st January 2020 to the 31st December 2021, he is due to serve a two year term of office as the President of the Glass and Glazing Federation.

The success and growth of Hazlemere Window Company Ltd since it was established in 1985, is very much down to its Chairman and co-founder Stuart Braham, its 30 year veteran CEO Tony Beale, its other experienced Directors, namely its Operations Director Jason Bradshaw and its Commercial Sales Director Jamie Lewis, plus its Managing Director, Rachel Braham-Hill and its magnificent staff and loyal client base.
