Chris Rayner, VP Strategy & Board Advisor
Chris has an extensive track record of success in Sales, Business Development and Sales and Marketing Management and is fuelled by an entrepreneurial drive to build Eagle to be the largest and most respected company in its field in the World.
Chris began his career in sales with Canon, swiftly moving on to a sales manager position in a start up office products business. In three years, Chris was instrumental in their growth from £300k to £3m.
When the company was successfully sold, Chris joined a selection company and helped to establish their sales recruitment business. Next he joined ICC PLC and introduced a bespoke research department within keynote.
He then joined Eltron Card Printers (Zebra Technologies Inc.) in 1996, where he became head of business development for the UK, Scandinavia and indirectly Eastern Europe, where he established a new distribution structure and helped build the Eltron and Zebra card printer brand names.
Seeing the market growth and an opportunity for a focused distributor in this market, he joined with David Phillips to establish Eagle Technologies Limited in November 1999 which is now recognised as the main trade sales only provider in the UK and Europe.
