"His client knowledge will prove invaluable in helping us continue to build our datacentre contractor experience in Europe and provide the best customer service in the industry."

In his role within the latest ISG division, Jim will also lead the deployment of a new, dedicated customer operations team alongside business development director, Richard Irwin.

"Under his leadership, we will be able to create a stable, resilient platform that enables us to achieve our ambitions and support the growth of the wider business."
