Edinburgh-headquartered tax relief specialists ABGI UK has named Christine Evans as its first national sales manager.
Evans will work with the company’s UK-wide network of business development managers with the support of ABGI UK’s director of sales, Chris Anderson, to grow the company’s client base.
Based in The Wirral on Merseyside, she joins after 20 years in medical device sales with firms including CR Bard, Maersk Medical and Boston Scientific.
Also joining ABGI are technical analysts Tony Combe and Eloise Bevan. Combe brings more than 15 years' executive level experience in international technology companies with a focus on mobile apps, software development, digital TV, consumer electronics and data storage.
Bevan takes on her role after completing a master’s degree in chemical engineering at University of Edinburgh.
rench-based Visiativ Group launched ABGI UK in March following its acquisition of R&D tax relief advisers Jumpstart. The appointments follow the announcement that the firm's Jumpstart brand would be retired and moved under the ABGI UK banner.
ABGI UK CEO Scott Henderson said: “I’m very pleased to welcome our new recruits, including Christine, which are part of ABGI’s investment into the UK operation. Christine’s role is newly created, designed to facilitate further growth to our business across the nation.
“She brings a strong sales pedigree with a wealth of client management experience and a number of highly transferrable skills that will benefit our sales operation. I look forward to working closely with her as well as Tony and Eloise as we continue to expand our client base throughout the UK.”
