His wealth of industry experience, particularly within the provider connectivity area will be key in driving forward our ambitions to closely integrate the leading providers and Wrap platforms with focus:360°, for a range of e-services, in order that they can access our growing distribution. The timing is now right, with the appointment of Kieran, to set-up a dedicated team to build out these close integrations and help drive more e-commerce and efficiencies for the industry.”
