Maja Foster Appointed Head of Marketing at NCMT

NCMT, a leading supplier of high-performance CNC machine tools in the UK and Ireland, has announced the appointment of Maja Foster as Head of Marketing, effective May 2025.

Maja brings a wealth of industry-specific expertise to her new role, having previously led the marketing operations for the UK arm of a global machine tool manufacturer. In that position, she was instrumental in building brand awareness and driving marketing initiatives across Europe, giving her a strong foundation in communicating complex engineering solutions to a broad, multinational audience.

With over 18 years of international B2B experience at Board level, Maja has a proven track record in strategic planning, change management, and marketing, particularly within the manufacturing and engineering sectors. Her background includes extensive work with CAD/CAM technologies, further strengthening her relevance to NCMT’s market.

Fluent in multiple languages and holding an MEng degree in Structural Engineering, Maja combines technical understanding with commercial acumen — a valuable combination for a business like NCMT, known for delivering fully engineered, turnkey machining solutions.

NCMT, which operates from centres in Coventry and Leatherhead, supplies a range of advanced manufacturing technologies exclusively in the UK and Irish markets. These include Makino machining centres and spark erosion machines, Okuma machining centres, lathes and grinders, and Tritone Technologies additive manufacturing systems. The company also distributes Blue Photon adhesive workholding products. Through the Makino-NCMT Grinding Division, a joint venture, NCMT is responsible for Viper grinding installations throughout Europe and beyond, with systems in place as far afield as Thailand and Mexico.

Commenting on her appointment, Maja said:
“I am thrilled to be joining NCMT at such a pivotal time. The company has a well-earned reputation for technical excellence and customer focus. My aim is to build on this legacy by enhancing our brand presence across key industries, from aerospace and power generation to medical and motorsport.”

“NCMT’s strength lies in its ability to deliver not just machines, but complete solutions backed by responsive engineering support, training, and long-term service. My role will be to make sure these capabilities are clearly communicated and recognised as part of the value we offer through the world-class brands we represent.”
