UK – Arrows Group appoints new Managing Director and Board

26 March 2015

Arrows Group Global; a UK-headquartered provider of staffing, project resourcing, and consulting services, has appointed a new, independent board led by Mike Jones as Managing Director.

Mr Jones will lead the company’s transformation from a local, specialist recruiter into a global total workforce solutions provider and is joined on the board by Charlie Sell (Global Sales Director), Paul Winchester (Global Contracts Director), and Naveen Narayanan (Global Operations Delivery Director). 

The new team will take global responsibility for Arrows Group Global, which currently includes operations in the UK, Netherlands, Germany, and India.

James Parsons, Chairman of Arrows Group, commented: “The inauguration of this independent board follows our strategy for separating our two major brands within the technology and healthcare space. By establishing ICG Medical and Arrows Group Global we now have two groups of companies, run by two independent boards that are very tightly aligned with their specialist sectors and primed for expansion. Mike leads a very strong team with a genuine global capability, and we are very excited about the opportunities we have in front of us.”

As part of the restructure, the new board teams succeed the operational responsibilities of co-founders James Parsons and Adrian Treacy, who move to an Executive Board.

After four successful years that include overseeing the group’s annual sales growth from £9.5 million to over £75 million, David Higgins steps down as Chairman and joins the executive board as advisor to the owners.
