Waterton will work closely with the sales and management functions across the company at a time of increasing global demand for its products. The appointment comes within days of ITRS posting very positive preliminary year-end results.

Prior to joining ITRS Waterton was the chief operating officer and finance director for EMEA at EB2 International Ltd. where he provided valuable insight and counsel to managing directors and business managers. Waterton has over 15 years' hands on experience of all aspects of operational and financial management, especially implementing business controls and developing effective management information systems for fast growing businesses.

Says Waterton: "One of the things that attracted me to ITRS was that companies of that size prove to be far more agile and responsive to market conditions, and ITRS is clearly entering an expansion phase. With the company at a significant stage in its development this is an exciting time for me to be joining the management team. I am able to bring my commercial and financial experience to ITRS and put systems in place that will provide the foundation and support its global growth."

Waterton began his career holding a number of positions in financial departments and quickly progressed to become a financial director and managing an international team. His responsibilities included negotiation, budgeting, successfully helping start-ups and extending the business to several countries.

Stephen Bates, ITRS managing director, commented: "Keith's experience is a real asset to ITRS and I am delighted that he has decided to join our team. We are growing rapidly and as the company expands we need the systems and controls to manage our growth and to continue building the company."
