Oliver and Jade joined in June and both bring a wealth of experience and enthusiasm to the team.
Oliver Kleinman joins us as our Interim Head of Marketing & Partnerships whilst our Director of Business Partnerships, David Smith steps up as Acting CEO. Currently this is in place until the recruitment of our permanent CEO is complete.
Oliver’s career spans over 20 years. He’s predominantly worked in the Print Manufacturing and Marketing Services sector, and more recently moved to Electrical, Fire & Security contracting.
He has an extensive background in Sales, Business Development and Marketing, and we’re looking forward to how his experience from other sectors can bring a fresh perspective to our team.
At home, Oliver is married to Paige, has 2 beautiful daughters, Emilie (9) and Imogen (5), and Golden Labrador, Myla. He likes to travel, cook and eat good food, spend quality time with family and loves his cars – specifically the Valeting & Detailing of them!
Jade Dickens joins us as our Partnerships Consultant. She’ll be working closely with our Partnerships Manager, Naureen Ullah on building great relationships with our customers and suppliers.
Jade had 16 years’ experience in Business Development and Bid Management. She places early engagement and developing a deep understanding of customer’s needs at the heat of everything she does. Over the past 7 years she has worked in pre-construction teams for new build housing – so knows the key drivers and challenges faced within the housing sector.
