“On behalf of the Board, I would like to welcome Jonathan to the Company. We look forward to working with him as we continue to build our global brands, including our focus on recurring digital and subscription revenues. It is an exciting time to be joining Bonhill as the Group continues its transformation following the challenges of 2020, and ready to build on the opportunities before us in 2021 and beyond. We are very pleased that Jonathan will be with us on this journey.” said CEO, Simon Stilwell.

He leaves the Bonhill Group with our gratitude and very best wishes for the future.”
