News - New Operations Director

David Spence joins SIAE UK as Operations Director

SIAE UK is delighted to announce that Mr David Spence has joined the organisation in the post of Operations Director for the UK company.

David joins us with a strong record in operations management positions with a number of wireless-related companies including NTL Broadcast Division. Prior to this, David was a member of Her Majesty's Armed Forces with significant rotary wing experience. During this time and at later positions with Marshall Consultancy Services, David amassed significant process improvement and business transformational skills which are being put to good use in his new post.

This position further strengthens the group which has made significant progress this year in many dimensions of the business - increased tunrover, increased personnel at senior levels, new investment in the business in the form of advanced wireless network design tools and the first phase construction of our European Network Operating Centre and last, but not least, our new HQ premises at Ramsbrook Farm in rural Hale.

Background

SIAE UK, the Wireless Service provider trading since 1997, was acquired in 2004 by SIAE MICROELETTRONICA S.P.A., the global microwave equipment manufacturer based in Milan Italy. As a result, various integration and investment activities were initiated in order to bring a number of very positive advantages to the UK based Services company.

Some of these benefits are itemised below:-

Calendar year 2005 was the first full trading year under SIAE management, and business revenues have seen double-digit growth every year since. The current year is seeing further significant growth as a result of the strong combination of a strong microwave wireless product range from SIAE MICROELETTRONICA S.P.A., global procurement agreements to access the best complementary products from other manufacturers, combined with the ability from SIAE UK to bring an appropriate range of customer services to the products.

This integration of two strong companies and two complementary approaches to the market is enabling a focus on the customer and on customer requirements and needs. Those customers who need to understand the technical detail behind the products will of course continue to receive our total support, whilst others who are more focused on the real world benefits and differentiating attributes flowing from a well conceived and implemented solution can now receive appropriate consultacy and service support from our customer focused turnkey design teams.
