What attracted you to your new firm?
The firm has considerable potential in the UK, which is exciting and challenging. Its core focus on transactional mail and data-driven marketing means it can take advantage of the opportunities arising from consolidation.

What are your main goals in your new role?
To complete the integration of acquired DPS Direct Mail into the Stralfors Group and to grow the revenue and profitability of the combined business. I will also work to secure a greater market share in the UK.
