Vero Software Ltd., Cheltenham, England, hired Bill Horvat as outside sales account manager based in Delavan, Wis., to represent the Surfcam and Edgecam brands. Having worked for former Surfcam reseller Programming Plus Inc., New Berlin, Wis., he is well-acquainted with Vero Software and the ever-evolving needs of its customers.
“I’ve worked with Surfcam for well over 20 years,” said Horvat, who has accrued a wealth of experience with CNC software and machinery. “I started right out of high school, running machines when I was 17, and have been working with CNC machines all my adult life.”
Horvat joined a machine tool supplier in his early 20s and traveled extensively for 4 years before settling down to work as a programmer, setup technician and operator for CNC mills and lathes. His experience with CNC software and machinery led to a long-term position with Programming Plus.
“I started my career there in technical support and training on Surfcam and other products and eventually moved into a sales position where I stayed through my tenure, performing software demonstrations and sales functions,” Horvat said. “I will always be appreciative and grateful for the friendship and family environment of working for Programming Plus, and I look forward to enjoying the same working with Vero.”
