Six Degrees Group has embarked on an ambitious phase of expansion following the creation of two new senior management roles.
Former Geo Networks CFO Adrian Howe joins as Corporate Finance Director while Mike Ing has been promoted to Chief Operating Officer.
Howe is tasked with reviewing corporate development opportunities and building internal structures that facilitate the speedy completion and integration of acquisition targets, while Ing's remit is to enhance the customer experience to a point where cross-selling opportunities reach their maximum potential.
Ing, a member of the senior management team for almost three years, also takes full responsibility for sales, service implementation, support and technical operations.
Alastair Mills, CEO at Six Degrees, said: "These appointments are testament to our desire to continue with both organic and acquisitive growth.
"Adrian's corporate finance and M&A experience in our industry will be invaluable as we look to take our growth plans to the next level.
"At the same time, having Mike assume the COO post will provide more ownership and accountability for our customer experience through a simplified management structure that improves our ability to execute those plans."
Ing stated: "I am passionate about delivering a rich customer experience and helping the company to cross-sell its converged portfolio to our mid-market client base."
Howe commented: "I look forward to working with Alastair and the rest of the senior team as we build a capital structure suitable for rapid expansion."
