Cobent expands its team
Cobent, a leading provider of solutions for e-learning, training and
compliance-led process management across the entire range of
international blue-chip companies, fast-growth start-ups, and public
sector organisations, has expanded its team with the addition of four
senior appointments. They are:
Ambrose, who oversees Cobent’s
direct and channel sales, was previously at the ILX Group plc, where he
managed e-learning solutions for organisations such as Nestle, British
American Tobacco, Xerox and Pirelli.
-
Phil Clare: who is head of
Cobent’s development team. Based at Cobent’s Manchester offices, Clare
is a graduate in computing from Manchester Metropolitan University and
a Microsoft Certified Solutions Developer, who ran his own computer
software business before joining Cobent.
-
Denise Harvey: who has become
Cobent’s project and implementation manager. Previously the environment
and implementation manager for financial advisers and stockbrokers, T D
Waterhouse Investor Services Europe, Harvey holds ITIL practitioner
qualifications in (software) release management and service management.
Her role at Cobent includes
project management as well as overseeing the quality control of
Cobent’s software and Cobent’s post-implementation support
infrastructure.
Alistair Morrison: who has joined Cobent as a non-executive director.
Morrison, also a non-executive director of the consultancy-led
publishing house Echelon, was - as managing director of learning
content producer Skillchange Systems - one of the leaders of the UK’s
embryonic e-learning industry in the 1990s.
Previously an operational board
director at defence and space specialists Vega plc and later marketing
director at the specialist research and training company, Lorien
Customer Focus (LCF), part of Lorien plc, Morrison will be making his
industry contacts and considerable financial and marketing experience
available to Cobent.
Howard Sears, Cobent’s CEO, commented: “The appointments of Jordan,
Phil and Denise, as well as Alistair, will help to drive our business
forward. Between them, they have a wealth of experience and widespread
sector knowledge which will help to cement the Cobent Learning
Compliance Suite (LCS) as one of the best known and most widely used
solutions for managing and controlling enterprise wide learning.”
