SecureTrading, the UK's leading independent payment services group, has appointed seven new starters as it begins an aggressive international growth strategy and pushes into key vertical markets.
As part of this push into vertical sectors, the sales division is to be reinforced with five of the new team members, each specialising in specific sectors including: retail and travel, telecoms and entertainment, education and charity as well as gaming, business to business sales and financial services in the UK and Europe.
In addition, strengthening the management team at the company's Bromley headquarters, Lisa Warren joins as Head of HR and Andrew Lee as General Counsel. Lisa has significant experience in senior HR roles for a number of global blue chip financial services businesses and will be responsible for putting efficient employment practices in place across the business.
Andrew Lee is former head of legal at Boku, has over 18 years experience in the legal sector. Andrew will be responsible for all legal affairs relating to every part of SecureTrading's global business.
These appointments are the first wave of a strong recruitment drive, which will extend SecureTrading's operations in numerous sectors and support the company in its ambitious expansion plans.
Justin Fraser, head of sales and marketing at SecureTrading said: "The varying specialities of this group will be extremely beneficial for the business, and I have no doubt each of the seven new appointees will flourish in their new role and significantly contribute to driving the business forward.
"We're looking to substantially expand in the coming months and boost both revenues and profits across all areas of the business. These appointments are an important step in achieving this goal, and we look forward to seeing them grow with the company."
