Confirmation of Directorate Change
Appointment of Chief Executive
Idox plc, a leading supplier of specialist information
management solutions and services, is pleased to confirm the
appointment of David Meaden as its new Chief Executive, with effect
from today, 1 June 2018 (as announced on 29 May 2018).
David enjoyed a 22 year career, including 12 years as Chief
Executive, with Northgate Public Services (NPS) a leading supplier
of specialist software, information technology and business process
outsourcing services to public sector markets. NPS was a part of
Northgate Information Solutions (NIS), a FTSE 250 company, of which
David was a member of the PLC Board from 2004 through to the sale
of NIS to KKR, the US Private Equity firm in December 2007. He then
led the business through its successful sale to Cinven in 2014.
David has substantial experience of working with the UK Public
Sector and during his tenure with Northgate Public Services, grew
the business four fold to become a leading provider to Local
Government, Police, Healthcare and Central Government agencies,
employing around 2,300 staff across 8 UK locations and a
development centre in India. David has significant experience of
business transformation, software development, outsourcing and
M&A successfully integrating nine acquisitions during his time
at the helm. He spent his early career in product management and
sales at Burroughs and Group Bull and has a degree in Business
Studies from the University of Huddersfield.
Richard Kellett-Clarke has today stepped down as Interim Chief
Executive and reverts to his previous role as a non-executive
director. The Board expresses its thanks to Richard who stepped
into the role at very short notice and has played an important part
in stabilising the business and leading the various business
reviews.
David Meaden said:
"I am delighted to be joining Idox at this very important point
in its development. I have known Idox for many years as a leading
player in the public sector solutions and services market and am
confident that it has both attractive products and talented people.
I look forward to starting work in June and continuing the
transformation of the business."
Laurence Vaughan, Chairman of Idox said:
"We are delighted to have secured such as high calibre leader as
David Meaden as Idox's new Chief Executive. His previous experience
with the UK Public Sector and software development at Northgate
Public Services, where he was until recently Chief Executive, is
especially relevant.
"David will focus on returning Idox to good growth and better
profitability through continued focus on digital transformation and
high quality governance solutions for the public sector. With this
new leadership in place we can look forward to the future with
renewed confidence."
