Appointment of Chief Operating Officer
Toople Plc (LSE: TOOP), a provider of bespoke telecom services
to UK SMEs, is pleased to announce the appointment of Mark Evans as
Chief Operating Officer effective as of 21 November 2016.
Mark has more than 14 years' industry experience, having
previously held senior positions at 02. He joined Toople shortly
after the IPO and has been leading the Company's digital
omnichannel sales and contact centre strategy since launch.
Mark will now lead the Toople customer engagement functions both
from a people, software and channel marketing perspective, ensuring
our back office process is best in class and focusing on delivering
a great customer experience to small businesses that is aligned to
their needs.
Following the positive market entry and success in the small
business segment, the business is acutely aligned to delivering a
seamless customer experience, as recognised by our above industry
standard Trust Pilot scores. Our smart and well targeted digital
marketing programs are the start of the customer experience
journey, whilst this is pivotal to winning prospective new
customers, the real customer experience doesn't start until
purchase is made and the provisioning process begins.
The Company also announces that having successfully delivered
the integration of the Group's proprietary bespoke telecoms
platform, Merlin, into the business, Dave Breith has now come to
the end of his consultancy agreement with Toople. Toople owns the
full Intellectual Property Rights for this platform. Dave's last
day with the Company will be on 18 November 2016 and the Board
wishes him every success with his future business interests.
Andy Hollingworth, CEO, Toople Plc, said, "I am delighted with
the appointment of Mark as Chief Operating Officer. Mark's
experience is a considerable asset to the Group as he brings with
him a wealth of industry and customer service experience. The
expansion of his role comes at an exciting time in Toople's
development, and I very much look forward to continuing to work
together.
