"A robust risk and compliance structure is an essential part of ensuring ongoing commercial success so I am delighted to welcome Sally to IQ-EQ as we progress further along our strategic growth journey. She's no stranger to working in fast-paced environments, so I'm sure she'll find herself right at home in IQ-EQ! This is a key leadership role within our business and I'm confident the Group will benefit from Sally's fresh perspective and expertise."
