TheBusinessDesk boosts commercial team with Townley hire
THEBUSINESSDESK.COM has bolstered its North West commercial team with the appointment of Alan Townley.
Alan’s recruitment as commercial manager for the professional services sector follows Lee-J Walker’s move up to commercial director at the fast-growing online news provider, which now has more than 60,000 North West subscribers.
In his new role Alan will work closely with Matthew Davies, commercial manager for non-professional services clients, and the editorial team of Chris Barry, James Graham and Joanne Birtwistle.
He has previously worked for Excel Publishing, Downtown Manchester in Business and Online Ventures.
On joining TheBusinessDesk.com, Alan, 41, said: “Since its launch in the North West in September 2006 I have watched with interest the rapid progress TheBusinessDesk.com has made, underpinned by the high quality editorial.
“I am delighted to join the team and really excited to take on a fresh challenge.
“The excellent response from the corporate finance community to the Rainmaker Awards which takes place on Thursday, underlines the esteem TheBusinessDesk.com is held by its core market.”
