Savage Lighting, a specialist in the design and manufacture of custom high-end lighting solutions for luxury yachts across the world, has announced the appointment of two stalwarts of the superyacht industry to its growing team: Nigel Sherlock and Tom Campion.

Having banked well over two decades' experience within the superyacht industry between them to date, the announcement takes place just ahead of the 2023 Monaco Yacht Show and represents an exciting opportunity for the Leicestershire-based company to make sure its presence is felt at this internationally significant event.

Tom Campion will be taking on the position of Head of Marine Projects, overseeing the burgeoning marine element of the lighting business, and Nigel Sherlock will have the role of Business Development Manager, harnessing his impressive wealth of experience and contacts to generate new business for Savage Lighting.

Originally trained in Product Design Engineering, Tom Campion brings seven years of technical expertise in superyacht lighting to his new role and is particularly looking forward to working for a company which boasts extremely strong in-house manufacturing capabilities alongside its research and development department.

"In our industry, being able to customise your projects is very important, so if you are able to do this in house, you can turn things around very quickly. In-house capability, design and manufacturing are absolutely key to successfully meeting the needs of our clients, and Savage Lighting has this in spades!" says Tom.

Nigel Sherlock has worked within superyacht lighting for almost a decade, and knew Savage Lighting for its solid and reliable reputation. Nigel says: "As MYS 2023 rapidly approaches, this is the perfect time for me to use my connections to help the company further develop its sales within the new build sector and enhance its already strong position in the refit sector. Tom and I have also worked together previously for seven years and are excited to bring our respective, and very different, strengths to Savage Lighting."

Julie Clark, Managing Director and Sales Director at Savage Lighting, adds: "We are delighted to announce these two extremely valuable appointments to our team ready for this year's Monaco Yacht Show. As a company, we have invested significantly in our in-house manufacturing capabilities in recent years and have plenty more investments in the pipeline. We are looking forward to showing the industry what Savage Lighting is all about at the incomparable Monaco Show - so please come and pay us a visit at stand DS95 DARSE SUD."
