HAHN Plastics appoints finance director

Greater Manchester-based manufacturer HAHN Plastics UK has appointed Rob Pietrzak as director of finance and professional services.

Rob joins the business with more than 25 years’ experience in finance, including more than 16 years in senior roles with a global medical technology company across the UK and Europe.

In his new position, he will lead strategic planning, financial reporting and budgeting, while overseeing the company’s HR and IT functions.

He will work closely with HAHN Plastics’ senior leadership team to strengthen financial performance, improve automation and enhance real-time reporting as the business continues to modernise its operations.

Rob said: “I’m delighted to have joined HAHN Plastics UK at such an exciting time for the business. 

“From my first conversation with the team, it was clear there is a genuine commitment to investing in the future, not just through the site and its operations, but through the people as well. 

“That culture, combined with the company's focus on sustainability, made it an opportunity I wanted to be part of.

“As the business continues to grow, I’m looking forward to working with the team to build on the progress already being made and help deliver the company’s long-term ambitions.”

Rob’s appointment comes as HAHN Plastics continues a multi-million-pound investment programme to support long-term growth.

Founded in 1993, the business manufactures products made entirely from recycled plastics, helping customers replace virgin plastic, wood, concrete and steel with more sustainable alternatives.

Max Cardona, general manager at HPUK, added: “Rob has a proven track record of supporting business growth across the UK and Europe, so we’re thrilled to welcome him to HPUK.

“We’re investing significantly in our site, our systems and our people as we build the foundations for the next phase of growth, and Rob’s expertise will be instrumental in helping us achieve those ambitions. 

“His collaborative approach and focus on continuous improvement make him an excellent addition to our leadership team, and we’re looking forward to seeing what the future brings.”
