Name	David Richmond
Job Title	Operations Director
Company Responsibilities	I am responsible for all service, repair and spares issues on the full Blackhall product range, including the planning and coordinating of on-site activities throughout the world. The Service Department is a constantly developing department, and through working closely with the Water Utility Companies throughout the United Kingdom and abroad, I get the chance to visit many amazing site locations; to carry out the installation and commissioning of Blackhall Products and give advice and recommendations on the repair and maintenance of all types of valves and equipment.
Hobbies/Interests	I have been involved in music from a very early age, playing the cornet and Trumpet in Brass Bands and Dance Bands. In the 1990's I gave all that up because of work commitments and eventually, when I finally found I had some free time, I started playing Golf. I battled on for 8 years, but when I finally realised I was never going to be any good at golf I went back to music. I now run a 4-Piece Rhythm and Blues Band called Sgt Wilko,(for all you oldies out there the Band is Named after the guitar player Wilko Johnson, because most of the music we play is by the Group from Canvey Island Dr Feelgood). I play bass guitar and sing. We play mainly in Pubs in and around West Yorkshire, and we do the occasional Blues Festival.
