The software development team at FleetCheck has been expanded with the addition of an IT team leader and a software tester.
Simon Kelly assumes the former role and will line-manage the core software team of three developers and one tester, reporting to IT director Neil Avent.
Drawing on Kelly’s 18-year track record in the IT sector, the new role will include facilitating collaboration and communication with other teams within the company, leading the prioritisation of projects, and assisting the compliance manager with technological aspects of information and data security in line with ISO 27001 and GDPR.
Also, Fola Ayeni has been named as software tester. She has been working in IT for five years and her responsibilities include ensuring test coverage of all aspects of the software, as well as creating test plans specific to current projects.
Peter Golding, managing director at FleetCheck, said: “We’re very pleased to welcome Simon and Fola on board. We have grown rapidly over the last couple of years, reaching our 1,000th customer in January and averaging about 50% annual growth.
“We have extensive and exciting product plans for 2020 and further into the future, and the extra development capacity and expertise these new appointments are providing is crucial to our ambitions.”
