IFB further cements growth plans with key appointment to senior team

Aberdeen-based managed service and data network providers, IFB, has appointed Jane Stewart as Non-Executive Director to the board.
Jane’s appointment strengthens the team at IFB as it further commits to its major strategic growth plans throughout the UK.

Jane is also currently part-time Strategy Director at William Tracey Group having formerly operated as Group CFO.
IFB’s CEO, Graeme Gordon says: “Jane has supported IFB in its development over the past two years in an ad hoc capacity and I am delighted to welcome her formally to the Board at a key point in the company’s continued growth story.  Despite tough local trading conditions, 2016 saw IFB achieve year-on-year revenue growth with continued positive financial performance.  This has allowed the business to further invest in the right team structure for the future, including Jane’s appointment and recent additions to our Business Development team in the central belt.  Whilst we seek to further expand across the UK, the North East continues to be a key market for IFB.”
Jane Stewart, IFB’s Non-Executive Director comments: “It is an exciting time for IFB and I’m thrilled to work with the Board as the business looks to further evolve its strategy and prepare for significant expansion into new services and new geographical markets.”
