Tridonic UK, a global leader in lighting technology and smart building solutions, today announced strategic leadership changes designed to enhance its digital service footprint and expand its reach into the data-driven solutions market.
Effective 1 May 2026, James Huntington is promoted to Projects, Solutions and Services Sales Manager, whilst Simon Blazey transitions into the role of Major Projects & Digital Services Manager.
These strategic appointments represent a natural evolution for the UK team following the successful deployment of Building Asset360 into the market. By aligning these leadership roles with the company’s digital services roadmap, Tridonic UK aims to deepen its penetration into the data-driven solutions market, providing end-users with unparalleled asset management and energy-efficient insights.
Building Asset360 was developed in response to the growing challenges faced by asset, estate and facility managers responsible for long-term building performance. Since most costs occur during the operational phase, lighting must be managed like any other critical building system.
The Tridonic Building Asset360 approach focuses on treating luminaires as intelligent assets that provide data on health, performance and energy usage. By integrating this data with BMS and third-party systems, users gain incomparable asset management and energy-efficient insights across the full lifecycle of their lighting infrastructure, supporting more transparent and informed decision-making.
This approach underpins a shift towards sustainable, data-backed building management, enabling organisations to optimise performance, reduce operational risk and ensure lighting assets continue to deliver value throughout their lifecycle.
As the newly appointed PS&S Sales Manager, James Huntington will pick up the baton from Simon and oversee the strategic direction of the Projects, Solutions, and Services division for Tridonic UK.
In his new capacity as Major Projects & Digital Services Manager, Simon Blazey will leverage his extensive expertise to lead complex, large-scale projects and establish a robust digital services presence within Tridonic’s growing end-user portfolio.
Richard Strode, Managing Director, Tridonic UK, commented, “These strategic role changes will further build upon the strong foundations Simon and James have already established with the wider team.
By continuing to focus on our Building Asset 360 platform and digital services, we are positioning ourselves to meet the ever-increasing demand for data-driven building intelligence on projects across the UK. These leadership moves ensure we have the expertise in place to support our clients through their digital transformation journeys and beyond.”
The organizational transformation is essential to leverage further on the success we have seen through the Building Asset 360 approach as the industry continues to shift toward sustainable, data-backed building management.
