Jewelcast appoints Sam Felton and Harry Cox to senior leadership team

Jewellery manufacturer Jewelcast has announced the appointments of Sam Felton as director of business development and Harry Cox as sales director, strengthening its support offerings to jewellery retailers, designers and trade customers across the UK.

Felton brings more than 30 years of industry experience to the role, with knowledge across the manufacturing, business development and customer sectors. In his new role, he will drive business growth by expanding its manufacturing capacity and improving production efficiencies.

Cox, who has been promoted to sales director, has company experience building relationships with customers and providing responsive support. In this new phase, he will work closely with new and existing customers to provide accurate manufacturing solutions.

Operating within Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter, the business has been scaling its capabilities across casting and bespoke jewellery manufacturing for over two decades. The company said that as interest for manufacturing partners across the country increases, it is continuing to invest in technology and craftsmanship to meet the demand.

Felton said: “Jewelcast has earned a fantastic reputation for quality, service and technical expertise, so I’m delighted to be joining the business at such an exciting stage of its journey.

“What really stands out to me is the company’s commitment to its customers and to British manufacturing. There is a genuine passion here for doing things properly, investing in the future and building lasting partnerships with the trade.”

He added: “I’m looking forward to working with the team to increase our manufacturing capacity, support our growing customer base and help even more businesses benefit from a trusted UK manufacturing partner.”

Karen Murphy, managing director of Jewelcast, said: “Both appointments reflect our continued investment in the future of the business and, most importantly, in the service we provide to our customers.

“Our ambition has always been to be more than a manufacturer – we want to be a trusted partner that our customers know they can rely on, whether they’re placing a single bespoke order or managing ongoing production.

“As demand for UK manufacturing continues to grow, we’re investing in our people, our facilities and our capacity so we can continue delivering the quality, reliability and personal service that have always been at the heart of Jewelcast.”
