Xwatch Safety Solutions part of Hexagon strengthens global training team with promotions for Adam Guilfoyle and Billy Hughes
Xwatch Safety Solutions has promoted two of its experienced installation engineers as the company strengthens its training capability in the UK and across its growing global network.
Adam Guilfoyle has been appointed Senior Product Support Trainer, while Billy Hughes has been promoted to Product Support Trainer. Both will now deliver technical training to Xwatch engineers, customers and partner companies.
The promotions mark an important step for both Adam and Billy, who started their Xwatch careers as installation engineers. Adam joined the company in May and Billy followed in July 2023. Since then, both have built strong reputations for their practical knowledge, hands-on approach and understanding of what engineers need when working on machines in real-world site conditions.
Their new roles will see them dedicated to training company engineers, helping to ensure that installation standards, product knowledge and technical confidence remain consistent as Xwatch systems are fitted to more machines in more markets around the world.
Jemma Dycer - Hopkins (IOSH) Dycer Hopkins, Operations Manager at Xwatch Safety Solutions, said: “Billy and Adam have both earned these promotions through their technical knowledge, work ethic and the way they support the wider engineering team. Both joined Xwatch as installation engineers, so they understand the job from the ground up.
“As the person responsible for deploying our engineers, I see first-hand how important good training is. It gives engineers confidence, helps maintain high standards, and ensures customers receive the level of support they expect from Xwatch.
“These new roles give Billy and Adam the opportunity to pass on their experience in a more structured way, whether they are training Xwatch engineers here in the UK or supporting customer and partner engineering teams around the world. It is a brilliant step forward for them both, and it strengthens the support we can offer as Xwatch continues to grow.”
Adam Guilfoyle, Senior Product Support Trainer at Xwatch Safety Solutions, said: “This is a brilliant opportunity. Having started as an installation engineer, I know how important it is to have the right training and support when you are out on site. Xwatch is growing quickly, and I’m looking forward to helping engineers build their knowledge and confidence.”
Billy Hughes, Product Support Trainer at Xwatch Safety Solutions, added:
“I’m really pleased to take on this new role. I’ve always enjoyed working with engineers and helping people understand the systems properly. It is a great opportunity to share what we have learned in the field and support engineers both in the UK and overseas.”
With Adam and Billy now focused on dedicated training roles, the company is strengthening the technical support available to its engineers, customers and partners worldwide.
