Global Mobile Radio Specialist Simoco Group has expanded its team with the appointment of Jonathan Bunce as Group Marketing Director and Vicki Guttridge as Marketing Executive as part of the company's global growth strategy.

The strengthening of the team will support the company's plans for further expansion in key markets across Europe, the Americas, the Far East and Australasia, as it works to further increase sales of its cutting edge technologies and solutions.

Part of Team Telecom Group, Simoco Group combines radio communications businesses Team Simoco in the UK and ComGroup in Australia.  Over the last 12 months the company has invested heavily in R&D at its Derby and Melbourne headquarters, and with growing international sales, together with a strengthening team, the company is positioning itself for significant growth over the coming year.

As Group Marketing Director, Jonathan is now responsible for all marketing activity across Team Simoco and ComGroup.  Previously Commercial Director for Airborne Networks, where he oversaw the introduction of new patented mesh technologies, prior to this Jonathan held Global Marketing roles for Motorola and senior marketing roles in consumer product organisations.

Jonathan says: "Simoco Group is at a very exciting stage in its global growth, with new technologies soon to be launched and a growing profile around the world.  The combined experience and skills of Team Simoco and ComGroup ensure we have a reputation for high quality, flexible solutions, based on cutting edge R&D, and this excellence in products and customer service will be at the centre of our growth strategy going forward."

Chief Executive Officer of Simoco, Ian Carr, adds: “We’ve seen major growth since the acquisition of ComGroup two years ago and Jonathan and Vicki’s appointments will strengthen the team further, enabling us to build on this success. Our focus now is on strengthening our presence in key markets across the world, while developing new, innovative technologies that will enable us to continually enhance the service and support delivered to every one of our customers.”
