Roy brings with him a 30-year career spanning media, commercial property and sports marketing. Most recently, Roy served as chief revenue officer at BD Sport Group.

In his new role at Altius Group, Roy will leverage his extensive experience to strengthen the business’s contact centre operations.

He will work closely with the lead generation department to expand the group’s sales capabilities, collaborating with the sales director to drive growth and enhance service quality in alignment with Altius Group’s ambitious 2025 growth plans.

Roy’s appointment comes at an exciting time for Altius Group, which recently celebrated a record-breaking month and achieved recognition as the ninth most active dealmaker in the UK.

Roy Wade said: “I am thrilled to join Altius Group and take on this pivotal role at such an exciting time in the company’s journey. I look forward to working with the talented teams across the group to further enhance our sales capabilities and deliver exceptional results for our clients.”

Managing director at Altius Group, Andrew K. Steen, said: "We are delighted to welcome Roy to the Altius team.
