“Simtec has been very successful and shown impressive growth both with new and existing customers under Frank Dilly, the managing director since 2017,” Keller said in a company statement. “Dilly has done a commendable job along with the astute management team and highly experienced employees. I look forward to acquainting myself with customers, suppliers and of course our great Simtec team.”

Keller will officially assume the role in July, the statement said.
