He joined Engine Group following its acquisition of his digital strategy consultancy. He will join the Board and remain in his current role.
On behalf of the Board, Penny Ladkin-Brand, Chairman said: “Dianna and Jonathan are excellent additions to the Board and bring with them a wide range of experience from the technology, consultancy and transformation fields which will prove immensely valuable as Next 15 continues to utilise technology and data to drive growth. Dianna will add critical knowledge and understanding of the U.S., which continues to be a key market for us. I’m confident that these appointments will support management’s ambitious growth plans for Next 15”.
