Steve Annand, who was appointed commercial managing director at TCB last September, has moved to become head of on-trade sales at sister company Magners GB.
In other changes, Jim Young, formerly head of business development at TCB, is now sales director; and Paul Condron will join the business as marketing director from his role as head of brand marketing at Highland Spring. Condron will replace Sandra Mitchell, who has been appointed C&C group marketing director.
