Mouchel appoints Managing Director

for Mouchel Business Services division

Mouchel, the infrastructure and business services Group, has appointed Craig Apsey as Managing Director of its Business Services division effective 11 June, 2012.

Craig joins Mouchel from BT's Local, Regional and Devolved Government business where he held the posts of Chief Operating Officer and then Director of Major Deals. At BT he was responsible for the safe delivery of bespoke programmes to BT's business process outsourcing customers, the development of the associated knowledge and skills base, and the creation of new value-added services. Prior to this Craig spent nearly ten years working for the civil service in a number of posts at the Department of Social Security (now Department of Work and Pensions). During his time there Craig was responsible for Solutions Architecture and the rollout of a new network and equipment to the Contributions Agency.

In his new role Craig will initially build on the excellent work started by Interim Managing Director, Michael Gates, consolidating Mouchel's property and consultancy businesses, identifying and delivering best practice, developing the delivery model and implementing the transformation that Mouchel's clients require and expect.

Grant Rumbles, Chief Executive of Mouchel, said, "We are delighted to have Craig on board. With nearly three decades of experience working with local government organisations and as a civil servant in ICT, he is an ideal choice for this position. His recent senior roles with BT give him the knowledge and experience to play a vital part in Mouchel's transformation and future business success."
