Two growing companies have created the role of sales and marketing director to underpin their ambitious expansion plans.

Martin Dugan, who has been with The Business Generation Group (TBG) and its sister company VHO for five years as head of operations, steps into the new role of sales and marketing director.

The senior leadership team - Paul Richards, Hayley Tyler and Liz Trembley - will take over the operational business responsibilities.

Martin said: “I am really enthused about the new role and looking forward to getting stuck in. My focus will be on generating new business for both TBG and VHO, and handing that over to our senior leadership team and account managers.

TBG specialises in high-end lead generation and appointment setting; VHO offers a similar service, specifically for business-to-business technology companies. The businesses have recently invested in new cutting edge software which allows them to offer a range of packages ideal for both start-ups and SMEs to multi-national corporates.

TBG and VHO are part of the same group as long-standing Swindon company Field Recruitment, collectively offering complementary services to businesses across the UK.
