Meet the Team

 Alan Jamieson

Alan JamiesonDirector

With over 30 years’ experience in the Material Handling Industry Alan has been responsible for the complete installation and site management of both large and small Material Handling Systems in the UK and Europe.

His attention to detail, and desire to supply the customer with a positive experience is legendary within the industry, and somewhat strangely for this era works on the ethos that the “the customer is always right”.

He brings to CAP Systems a wealth of knowledge and access to a Service and Installation team second to none in the industry, built over many years, and has a view on work that “if it is not 100% then it’s not finished”

Away from the “coal face” Alan likes nothing better than spending quality time with his wife  and 3 children.

In addition he continues to dream of his beloved Newcastle United winning something….it could take a while !!

Barry MachinDirector

Having worked on both sides of the Material Handling Industry fence as both a Supplier and Purchaser Barry brings a unique industry view to CAP Systems.

With over 30 years’ experience in the Industry, in senior roles, in both Project Management and Sales he has the ability to follow a project from initial sales contact to final handover….and through to service and evolution…..

Having worked throughout Europe for 25 years Barry has recently returned from a 3 year spell in the USA where he further enhanced his industry knowledge.

Like his fellow director, Alan, he loves his football but as he supports Coventry City…….. Has no dreams of them ever winning anything.
