Allocate Software hires General Manager for Australia and New Zealand

Allocate Software (LON:ALL) has hired Peter Croft as its new General Manager for Australia and New Zealand. The company highlighted that the appointment coincides with an accelerated international expansion, focusing on securing major deals in the region.

“We have established a significant presence in multiple sectors across Australia and New Zealand, with further expansion plans to extend activities across this region ... [the] appointment builds on the strength of the management team and demonstrates our commitment to significantly broadening Allocates operations on a global scale", Allocate Chief Executive Ian Bowles commented.

The newly appointed manager will be responsible for all of Allocate's commercial activities in Australia and New Zealand.
"[Allocate] has an excellent track record for delivering real and lasting change to a wealth of different organisations,” said Peter Croft.

“I look forward to working with the team at Allocate, furthering the Company's ability to help organisations across Australasia drive efficiencies from their workforce while maintaining optimal service delivery, through implementation of Allocate's solutions."

In its interim results, earlier this month, Allocate reported a 39% increase in revenues with trading profits up 38%, fuelled by a growing customer base in both the UK and internationally.

The healthcare workforce-optimization software provider has already won significant contracts in Australia and New Zealand, landing a deal with the Royal Australian Army, and becoming preferred supplier for the State Government of New South Wales.
