Board Changes
Castleton (AIM: CTP), the software and managed services provider
to the public and not-for-profit sectors, is pleased to announce
the appointment of Dean Dickinson as Chief Executive Officer,
effective from 31 October 2016. Ian Smith will remain on the Board
in an executive role as Deputy Chairman.
Dean Robert Dickinson, aged 55, was previously Managing Director
of Advanced Business Solutions, part of Advanced Computer Software
Group Limited (previously Advanced Computer Software plc ("ACS")),
where he led the impressive growth of the Public Sector and
Enterprise division following the acquisition of COA Solutions in
2010. Dean was part of the senior management team that sold ACS to
Vista Private Equity for GBP725 million in March 2015.
Dean has over 30 years' operational experience in the software
industry and was one of four directors at Walker Inc responsible
for an MBO backed by Alchemy Private Equity in 2002 to form a new
business called Arelon. Arelon merged with Cedar in 2003 and was
rebranded COA Solutions where he became Deputy Managing Director
for the business as a whole.
Commenting on the appointment, Ian Smith, incoming Deputy
Chairman, said:
"I am delighted we have secured someone of Dean's calibre to
guide Castleton through its next phase of development. He brings
with him significant experience in both software and the public
sector and has an impressive track record of delivering growth.
"I look forward to working with Dean in my new role as Deputy
Chairman, which will enable me to focus on Group strategy and key
client relationships."
