Leadership transition announced at Wassenburg UK

Wassenburg UK has announced a significant leadership change. The current MD Rakesh Javer departs at the end of July to embark on an exciting new chapter in his career.

After 15 years of service to Wassenburg Medical, Rakesh will be stepping into business ownership, supplying high-quality stainless-steel products - including sinks and pass-through hatches designed specifically for decontamination areas. His deep knowledge of the sector and commitment to infection prevention will support this new venture.

Taking the helm as Managing Director is Mr. Nic Barnes, a seasoned professional with over 35 years of experience in the endoscope and endoscope reprocessing sector. Nic’s impressive career began in 1989 with Olympus and includes leadership roles with Medical Innovations and Cantel Medical, where he served as Managing Director. His extensive expertise in the IP&D sector position him well to lead Wassenburg into its next phase of growth.
