Phipps has extensive electronics experience.
He has spent the last five years in sales and marketing roles but prior to this started his career as an IC and software engineer, then moving on to Symbionics where he was responsible for project and programme management of leading edge wireless product developments.
"It's a great time to be joining Plextek", comments Phipps.

"The company is very responsive to the needs of its customers, has fantastically skilled in-house engineers and is well positioned to take advantage of the continued trend towards wireless products".
"I'm relishing the new challenge of helping to drive Plextek's continued success".
Colin Smithers, Managing Director, Plextek comments: "We're delighted to have brought Tim onboard".
"Tim has spent his entire career working with wireless technology both as a hands-on engineer and in sales".
