Senior Management
Peter is the founder and executive chair of Intertronics. He started the business selling replacement soldering iron tips. Having witnessed seismic technical and commercial changes in the UK electronics manufacturing industry over the last four decades, and rolling with the punches, he now presides over an adhesives business with a diverse, technical customer base. He spends a lot of time thinking strategically, finding new people to work in the company, finding new products to sell, and mentoring the Senior Management Team (the people who really run the business). He loves trying to keep up with the latest sales & marketing trends, and generates a lot of our marketing content.
Peter is a Visiting Fellow at Cranfield University School of Management, a Non-Executive Director of a technology PCB start-up, and runs an SME networking group. In spare moments he attempts to assuage his GAS (guitar acquisition syndrome), tries to play all these guitars, supports Northampton Saints rugby club, and muses over many past Glastonbury festivals.
Teresa started at Intertronics over ten years ago and has continued to grow and develop within the company ever since. Her official job title is Joint Managing Director, but in real terms, she is the doer of all things that need doing (a.k.a. Office Mum).
She looks after our operations team, general office facilities, and is a member of our Senior Management Team. Teresa will often be the one to ask the difficult questions and challenge the status quo, all whilst smiling the day away.
Her main passions outside of work are her children, husband and dog; they are also the reason she likes to drink wine and spend time with her friends at spas.
Ben has gone from working in our warehouse as a teenager to joining our Senior Management Team as the Joint Managing Director (via an economics degree and a seven-year career elsewhere, including two-years living in the US) and is an annoyingly optimistic influence well known for his catchphrase; “we go again!”
Ben oversees our sales function and is passionate about products, spreadsheets, and Guinness.
A huge sports enthusiast and if you like talking about the NFL then he will never leave you alone.
Sales and Marketing

When out of the office, he enjoys comedy, watching and playing football, fishing and spending time with his family.
Tim Johnson, our Business Development Manager, brings 30 years of sales expertise in resins and industrial adhesives. Passionate about strategic planning, Tim thrives on building partnerships and tackling unique challenges for our customers.
Outside of work, Tim enjoys traveling, fishing, cycling, and watching football with his son. Recently, his daughter convinced him to add a Cocker Spaniel puppy to the family, meaning more walks are on the horizon! Tim also loves outdoor cooking, proudly managing four barbecues—a hobby his wife fully supports as it keeps him out of her kitchen.
Joining our sales team in 2022, Ian works alongside Craig to support customers in the North of the UK. A registered inventor and holder of a qualification in mechanical engineering, Ian relishes the opportunity to get involved with new and exciting projects and applications.
Ian is a keen foodie who enjoys experimenting with new cuisines and developing his repertoire of recipes to try on his family – with varying degrees of success!
Having hung up his rugby boots many years ago, Ian’s still an avid fan of the sport and enjoys watching his local team play and cheering his sons on from the sidelines.
Craig, our Sales Specialist for the North of the UK and Ireland, works alongside Ian to assist our customers in achieving their production goals and enhancing their operational processes.

Beyond that, Craig delights in baking and getting creative with arts and crafts with his daughter. He’s also a regular participant in Dungeons and Dragons games with his friends.
Since joining Intertronics thirteen years ago as a Technical Sales Specialist, Simon has supported our customers in the eastern territory.
Playing his part as the external member of Team East, Simon enjoys problem-solving and working collaboratively with our customers to provide the best possible outcome, both technically and commercially. Having spent a large proportion of his career specialising in the field of UV curing, he now enjoys the broader range of technical challenges presented by our customers.
Simon has found himself married into a family of football fanatics, so spends many (happy?) weekends watching football in North London – white, not red!
As Sales Specialist for the East region of the UK, Darren works in partnership with Simon Gibbs. Often one of your first points of contact at Intertronics, he is adept at resolving your queries and can offer quick, authoritative technical support.
Darren is deeply inspired by the enthusiasm of our customers to reach their full potential and relishes the opportunity to make an impact.
Outside work Darren is heavily involved in the local youth rugby club. He is the Head coach for the Gosford All Blacks U7’s, a Youth committee member at the club and an advocate for Visually Impaired Rugby. Darren has a strong interest in ‘heavy metal’ – the music genre, not the metals that we bond with using our adhesives!
Holly makes sure that we’re in tune with our customers and speaking to their needs and wants by shaping our marketing strategy and leading the rest of the marketing team.
She draws on her marketing experience across a range of sectors including public, charity, technology, utilities, and electrical to launch products, drive lead generation, build brand identity and deliver engaging content. Holly is a huge advocate for no-nonsense marketing, cutting through the noise to deliver effective, customer-centric communication.
Holly keeps busy with her two children but always tries to find time for some of her big loves: reading, travel, and a good Taylor Swift song!
Rachel uses her marketing background and strategic management education to lend insight and analysis to Intertronics company ambitions of many varieties. Be it market analysis, business planning, marketing propositions or other strategic projects, she does the background work to enable teams around the business to move forward with new ideas, contacts, and understanding.
Outside of work, Rachel is a classically trained pianist and much to her colleague’s delight, she is also an avid baker. Her current personal projects include a dollhouse pub and a life-size garage bar.
As the Marketing Exec at Intertronics, it’s Steve’s job to create interesting, thought-provoking content and showcase the tools and capabilities Intertronics has at its disposal.
Steve often spends hours tweaking, updating, and reorganising our company website with videos, products, and technical articles. It’s his aim to help you find exactly what you are looking for, at a click of a button.
When not at the office, you’ll usually find him and his partner scrambling up a cold, wet mountain in the Lake District with their Border Collie, Max.
Dyne Testing

She is currently enjoying her new role as Dyne Sales Manager collaborating with our customers and key suppliers to ensure we offer the best surface measurement solution to any application requirement that comes our way.
Away from her desk, you can usually find Alison walking along a country lane with her little white dog in tow, dressed in sequins at a music festival or striking a very unflattering pose at Pilates.
Conor supports customers with technical questions about the Dyne Brand, helping them select the right equipment for their needs. With a BSc (Hons) in Physics from York, he enjoys working hands-on with equipment in the Technology Centre and collaborating with the team.
Outside of work, Conor enjoys cooking and experimenting with new recipes, climbing both indoors and outdoors, and relaxing with a great movie.

Kevin has worked in the adhesives industry for over 20 years and is a total geek both at work and home. Outside of Intertronics, Kevin lives in Northampton and is part of multiple church groups. He is a retired ice/roller hockey goalie and referee but still likes to return to the rink to watch the MK Lightning when he can and hog the TV to watch endless highlights of an evening. He is pretty handy in the kitchen too!

A keen motorcyclist outside of work, Chris attends many charity events and camping weekends with his local biker club. He has also passed his foundation radio license, allowing him to communicate with contacts around the world.
Scott spends much of his time getting hands-on at his workbench servicing our customer’s various pieces of dispensing equipment and is adept at constructing custom enclosures for our archytas series of robot integrations.

Operations
Joining Intertronics in 2024, Marie is a key member of our accounts team, playing an essential role in processing payments and invoices. She’s always available to help with any financial queries you may have.
On summer weekends, you can find Marie on the boundary rope, cheering for the local cricket team. She loves attending live music events and enjoys holidays in the sun with a good book—and everything is better with a cold beer in hand!
Kezia uses her years of experience in purchasing to keep track of all the stock coming in and out of our busy UK warehouse. Spending much of her day liaising with our trusted global suppliers to maintain a constant stream of materials and equipment, Kezia plays a key role in keeping your manufacturing operation in full swing.
Outside of the 9-5, Kezia enjoys hiking in the countryside with her partner and family, and if she can work a pub halfway into the route, all the better.
Annie focuses on HR policies, practices, and operational areas such as environmental practices and contracts, bringing years of HR experience across the NHS, private, and non-profit sectors. With a degree and a passion for lifelong learning, she ensures professionalism in every interaction, even though she’s not directly customer-facing.
Outside of work, Annie enjoys snorkelling, spending time with loved ones, reading, socialising, and is passionate about all sports—except cricket!
A valuable member of our quality team, Liam plays an important role in maintaining our ISO 9001 :2015 accreditation and helping you with REACH, RoHs and MSDS document enquiries.
Outside of work, Liam enjoys chilling out and watching American sports on TV, including hockey and basketball. He enjoys cycling on the weekends, and if he can work a pub garden into his route, all the better.
James has been supporting your orders and managing our stock since 2014. Quotes, proformas, pricing the all-important “where’s my order?” question, he’s always quick to respond in his positive and upbeat manner.
Jimmy’s our resident dangerous goods guru for shipping our boxes overseas via IATA regulations.
A Scout leader and avid rugby fan, he also supports the local community by organising our regular Intertronics food bank donations.
When not at work, he can usually be found outside in the chilly, wet, and windy British weather, either on a campsite or rugby pitch.

Joel joined our team in 2016, bringing with him 14+ years of warehouse knowledge and understanding. It’s Joel’s job to make certain the warehouse runs as smoothly as possible, ensuring goods move accurately in and out of the building and stock is stored correctly. With his forklift truck license, he is able to make full use of our warehouse facilities for all our equipment and materials.
When he isn’t discussing the latest NFL Fantasy Football tactics with our Sales Manager, Joel, who is a keen golfer, can often be found hacking his way around his local golf course trying to keep his handicap in the low teens.
Grant joined Intertronics in 2022 with over 12 years of warehouse experience and quickly solidified himself as an essential member of our team. Working alongside Joel, Grant ensures our deliveries get booked in, and customer orders are picked and sent out quickly and accurately.
Grant likes moving heavy items around our warehouse so much that he often continues this into his personal life as well – at his local gym. When he fancies a break from lifting, Grant enjoys attending the odd music gig or boxing match with friends and family.
