THE managing director of Glass’s Information Services (GIS), Paul Jarvis, is stepping down after five years in the role.

He said: ‘It’s been an important period for the company but now seems an appropriate opportunity for me to step down and allow someone new to take up running the business.’

Kevin Gaskell, chief executive of the EurotaxGlass’s Group, of which GIS is the UK subsidiary, will step in as interim general manager. Day-to-day matters will be handled by finance director Helen Ball and sales director Brian Ruddock until a permanent replacement is found.
