Plumbworld are pleased to announce the appointment of Scott Morris to the position of E-Commerce Manager
Scott previously worked in the e-tail sector, and over the last 6 years has gained a wealth of experience in online marketing, and shopping comparison marketing working in partnership
with huge household names such as Hewlett-Packard and Samsung.
Scott previously worked for DIGIUK for six years and was responsible for online marketing of new products, and the re-marketing of refurbished products where he gained the marketing
support of HP and Samsung and turned the online company into an HP Partner and a Samsung Solution Centre, the first in the UK at the time. During his time with DIGIUK Scott was

how we market our products effectively in the online market. Scott has a proven track record in delivering impressive results. We are moving further into the Shopping Comparison Market

bigger than press advertising to realise it is happening here and now. Plumbworld is an incredibly dynamic and market focused business. New products are launched in an instant and it will
be my job to ensure that we market those products effectively and on the correct medium.
