Exaxe appoints UK Sales Director
Exaxe, the specialist IT solutions provider for the life and pensions industry, today announced the appointment of Ralph Tucker as its UK Sales Director.
The move comes following Exaxe’s announcement last year of its plans to expand the business in the UK, Ireland, Canada and the Nordic regions. One year into its two year recruitment drive plan, Exaxe has increased its headcount by over 20% and continues to grow steadily.
Ralph has been brought on board to continue driving this expansion by generating growth in the UK life, pensions and wealth management sector. He is responsible for developing go-to-market and sales strategies, creating new business opportunities and providing greater support for the existing clients in the UK.
Philip Naughton, Executive Director Business Development at Exaxe says:
“Ralph brings over 18 years’ industry experience to Exaxe, which he gained in the financial services, BPO and technology vendor industries. Ralph has joined Exaxe from Mastek UK where he worked as Business Development Director and was responsible for setting the product and sales strategy. Prior to this, Ralph worked in large scale organisations, including as Capita, Vertex Group and Zurich Group in a variety of senior roles including Head of Propositions, Head of Product Management and Head of IT Promotions.
Ralph Tucker says:
“I’m delighted to be joining Exaxe at such a pivotal stage in the business’s development. I am confident that I can support its continued growth, in line with the expansion plans, to develop the business and its propositions that will benefit our customers in these difficult economic times.”
Naughton continues:
“Ralph's knowledge of existing distribution practices, trends and future models combined with a deep understanding of life companies’ operational practices and products will be a great addition to Exaxe and its clients. Our appointment of Ralph coincides nicely with our new business strategy and provides the platform for our planned future growth and expansion into new markets. We look forward to Ralph’s contribution to our continued growth”
