Fluidra Commercial Australia announces appointment of Business Development Manager for Victoria and Tasmania

Fluidra Commercial Australia, global supplier of commercial pool solutions, has announced the appointment of Chris Clarke as the new Business Development Manager for Victoria and Tasmania.

With an extensive background in the industry, Clarke brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to his new role.

Previously with Fluidra owned company, Sunbather Pool Heating, Clarke has a proven track record of driving business growth and cultivating strong relationships within the industry.

His deep understanding of the market, combined with his passion for delivering exceptional customer service, makes him an ideal fit for Fluidra Commercial Australia.

Clarke (pictured) started his career in 1993 as a contractor installing solar pool heating and covers after completing his plumbing apprenticeship at Monash University Clayton.
