Digital signage provider ADXBA has announced the promotion of Chelsea Fothergill to the position of operations director. Fothergill has been the company’s head of service delivery & compliance for the last six years.
In her new role, she will oversee the management and continued development of ADXBA’s dedicated teams for digital signage design, fabrication, installation, maintenance, and health & safety.
The promotion of Fothergill continues the company’s recent focus on growth that has included a significant expansion of its workforce in the last six months – with new hires across multiple departments such as specialist maintenance staff, warehouse & logistics, project delivery and sales – as well as the bolstering of their technical support and software development teams. Now, with a new operations director in place, there will be an additional emphasis on refining existing processes to ensure that operational efficiencies are implemented and maintained across the growing business.
In her new role, Fothergill will be responsible for team members throughout the UK across the projects, service delivery and health and safety teams, with further recruitment ongoing. In addition to improving interdepartmental communication and collaboration, Fothergill aims to maintain the open and supportive ethos which she has benefited from over the last nine years.
This promotion makes Fothergill ADXBA’s first female director – a milestone in the company’s 14-year history and one which reflects its commitment to staff development and improving gender diversity in the AV industry.
