John Jones is on the Move
Industry maverick John Jones (pictured) is leaving Pfaff-Silberblau after 21 years' service to pursue other professional and personal interests. Jones is probably best known as the MD of lifting, moving, turning and flying specialists PCM, the entertainment and leisure division of the German owned Pfaff.
Jones set up PCM in 1993 and the company was responsible for establishing the CM Lodestar motor as the UK and European concert touring industry standard motor in the 1990s. Another major achievement for Jones was the establishment of a comprehensive infrastructure of motor and rigging training programmes based at PCM, and open to all. Training is one of the many areas he is passionate about.
Jones comments with his trademark Liverpudlian dryness: “I’ve had a fantastic time with the company, but the time was right to move on – or I was in danger of becoming part of the furniture!”
Jones is also an active – and often outspoken - member of the PLASA committee and the PSA Council. But he’s coy about his next move, only indicating that there’s no shortage of exciting options.
