Personnel Change

This is to provide an update on PDS Personnel.

As many of you will be aware, our GM Peter Thorpe, took extended leave mid-November to address some personal issues.  Sandra Hordern had already stepped back in as PDS CEO in September and took over operational management of PDS whilst Peter was on leave. Peter subsequently advised the PDS Board that his focus has changed direction and he would therefore be resigning at the end of February, with a handover period in March.

Sandra Hordern will continue managing PDS operationally, and recruiting has already commenced for a Business Development and Customer Relationship Manager.  PDS’s focus has always been on building and maintaining strong relationships and collaborative partnerships with our clients, and this role therefore, will be our focus for Peter’s replacement.

We, of course, wish Peter all the best with his new endeavours.

Sandra will keep you informed of developments; however, should you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact her or any of our team:

Regards

PDS Board
