Ashley began his career with Chase Manhattan Bank, where he rose through the ranks of technology and online banking. He then joined MasterCard, where he became responsible for the African region of the group. After recognising the opportunities within eCommerce Ashley founded Proc Cyber, growing the business to a valuation of over GBP60 million in three years and then merging with Datacash in 2006 where he assumed the role of Chairman. Under Ashley's leadership, Datacash grew to a market leading position with MasterCard purchasing the company in 2010.

He is also a trustee for the National Emergency Trust, Epsom College and Stonegate Foundation.

Commenting, Trevor Francis, Chairman, said:

"When John Langlands retired we committed as a Board to appoint another Non-Executive Director, especially with small cap public market experience. I am delighted that Ashley Head has now agreed to join the Board and will now be bringing his significant experience and commercial acumen to our Company. We welcome Ashley to the team and we look forward to working with him in our determination to drive the business forward and to capitalise on the continuing and substantial opportunities in infection control markets".
