NCC Group strengthens management team with two senior appointments

NCC Group, the global cyber security and risk mitigation group, is pleased to announce the appointments of Simon Fieldhouse and Max Baldwin, strengthening its global management team as the Group's transformation programme continues.

Simon Fieldhouse has joined NCC Group as global Managing Director of the Escrow division. He has a strong track record of leadership in the technology and software sectors, most recently as CEO of Hardware.com, where he led the business from its UK origins to become a leading international IT Managed Services provider. He takes on this role from Daniel Liptrott, who will now focus on driving growth in the Group's North American Escrow business.

Max Baldwin joins NCC Group in October as Group Sales and Marketing Director from Ultra Electronics, where he was Marketing Director of the Communications and Security Division, responsible for growth strategies and execution in both the UK and international markets. His predecessor Shane Slater is stepping down from his role for personal reasons.

Commenting on these appointments Adam Palser, NCC Group CEO, said: "These are important appointments for NCC Group. Simon and Max both bring relevant sectoral expertise, international experience and leadership skills, which will prove invaluable as we strengthen our position as a global leader in our markets.

"We are committed to returning Escrow to confident growth and by adding to the senior team we can focus attention on the fast-growing North American division, without diluting the effort we are putting in to improving UK performance and driving the launch of our promising new 'Escrow as a Service' product."
