JOSE Gomez has been appointed managing director of Linx Printing Technologies following the retirement of Nigel Hood.
He joins the coding and marking specialist after 17 years with fellow Danaher business Videojet, where he held a number of senior roles, most recently as vice-president and general manager of Videojet Latin America.
He said, “I am thrilled to join a great team at Linx and partner with them to continue delivering innovative coding and marking solutions to our customers. At Linx we play a critical role in helping our customers improve their productivity and I am very excited about the breakthrough IoT solution ‘Printernet’ we will be launching soon.”
Joakim Weidemanis, Danaher’s executive vice president, production identification and water quality platforms, added, “With Jose’s extensive experience at Videojet, and his track record of building and developing highly effective teams, I am very confident that he will continue the strong leadership that drives Linx’s success.
“I congratulate Nigel on his retirement. I thank him for his long service and accomplishments throughout his career, in particular his contribution at Linx where he has led the team through outstanding growth in 2016 and 2017.”
