Jan Mille – who is already a member of Roxell’s Management Team – is taking on a new challenge as the Operations Director. In his new role, he will lead our plants in Belgium, the US and Malaysia. He will focus on process optimization and automation, so we can respond to the demands of our customers with fast delivery and custom service worldwide.
