Elecosoft appoints Simon Morgan as new finance director

The AIM-traded firm said Morgan has held numerous senior financial and other directorships in digital publishing, software-as-a-service and business services companies.

Most recently, he was CFO of MeteoGroup - a global provider of B2B weather forecasting services.

Before that, he had held senior financial and managerial roles in various subsidiaries of RELX, including its US-based subsidiary Elsevier Clinical Solutions.

He is a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales.

“We are delighted to welcome Simon Morgan to the board of Elecosoft,” said executive chairman John Ketteley.

“More than two thirds of our turnover is in overseas markets and Simon's substantial international financial experience will be valuable to us as we focus on leveraging the significant cross-selling opportunities presented to us by our recent move to extend the Elecosoft brand across all our software products and markets.

“We look forward to working with such an experienced finance professional.”
