- McCormick who joins as optimisation strategist from a senior management role at Shop Direct where he helped to implement its customer centric approach.
- Lisa Patel, front end developer, who joins from Amaze to support testing implementation. She will be responsible for driving testing tool capabilities to deliver complex tests for clients.
