Record UK’s Joe Greenlees Joins ADSA Executive Committee


The Automatic Door Suppliers Association (ADSA) has strengthened its leadership team with the appointment of Joe Greenlees, Managing Director of Record UK Ltd, to its Executive Committee — the group responsible for the association’s governance and strategic direction.

Joe succeeds Mark Ayton, who is stepping back from his ADSA role after many years’ loyal service, to manage his extended role as Record’s Regional Director of North Europe.

With more than nine years at Record UK and his promotion to Managing Director, in April this year, Joe brings a blend of operational experience, strategic insight and infectious enthusiasm for developing the next generation of industry talent.

“It’s a real privilege to join ADSA’s Executive Committee,” said Joe. “Record UK has been part of ADSA’s story from the very beginning, and I’m proud to continue that legacy. I’m passionate about supporting initiatives that promote the automatic door industry as a rewarding and professional career path - there’s a huge opportunity to attract young people and showcase what our sector has to offer.”

Joe paid tribute to his predecessor, Mark, whose guidance and leadership have shaped both Record UK and his own career...

“I’ve learned more from Mark than anyone I’ve ever worked with. He’s a fantastic leader - motivational and strong, yet understated. His style is all about empowerment and trust. He doesn’t micromanage; he encourages people to take ownership and grow. I’ve been very fortunate to take over a business in great shape, and that’s largely down to Mark’s leadership.”

Joe originally trained as a quantity surveyor and began his career began in consultancy and construction before moving into the automatic door industry which he describes as “a revelation.”

His leadership at Record UK has seen continued growth, operational excellence and a commitment to people development.

In his new role with ADSA, Joe is eager to represent the voices of those working within the sector every day: “I hear a wealth of great ideas and feedback from colleagues across the business. I hope to bring those perspectives to the table and help ADSA maintain its relevance, innovation and connection with members at every level,” he added.

Based in Glasgow, Joe lives with his partner and ten-year-old daughter. Away from work, life is firmly family-focused - including cheering from the sidelines at hockey, helping with homework, or spending time outdoors. Once a keen golfer and skier, Joe admits those pursuits have taken a back seat to family life, though his energetic Hungarian Vizsla ensures there’s still plenty of opportunity to get out and about.

Ken Price, ADSA Managing Director, welcomed the appointment: “Joe brings fresh perspective, drive and passion to the Executive Committee. Like his predecessor Mark, his leadership style is grounded in empowerment, collaboration and trust — qualities that reflect the very ethos of ADSA. His insight into business leadership and his commitment to nurturing talent will be invaluable as we continue to promote quality, safety and professionalism across the industry.”
