Kyocera Document Solutions UK has appointed Martin Fairman as its new group sales and marketing director.

Fairman takes on the role having previously served as UK and Ireland managing director and channel director at Lexmark, bringing with him more than 20 years of senior leadership experience in technology organisations.

During a 12-year spell with Lexmark, Fairman occupied a number of sales and channel roles, prior to which he held leadership positions at Samsung and Konica Minolta.

“The last year has thrown up a number of challenges for businesses operating in the print and document management space, but Kyocera has continued to deliver despite these pressures,” Fairman said.

“The company now has ambitious plans to further expand its product and service portfolio, offering a range of holistic solutions that cover areas such as cloud, disaster recovery, automated workflow software and full managed ICT services.”
