London, United Kingdom - Testing Circle, leader in software and systems testing, this week announced the appointment of Robert Hokin as Managing Director. Robert has a 15 year track record in business development and growth from previous senior management roles with McAfee, Netstore and GEC-Marconi.
He has worked with organisations such as BT, Barclays Bank, CitiGroup, HSBC, Inmarsat, Telecom Italia, Telia Sonera, The United Nations and UK Central & Local Government in the areas of communications and technology management.
“Software and IT Testing has gained acceptance as a specialist area. Most Management Boards and CIO’s would agree it’s pretty obvious and critical that their in-house and vendor developed software and systems launch bug-free and perform well. However, most projects struggle to guarantee that actually happens. Even finding good, accredited Testing and QA staff can be a real challenge in many sectors. There are many competing Testing methodologies, practices and toolsets to consider and navigating through all the choices can be a challenge.
Testing Circle is very well positioned to provide consistent best-in-class Test solutions and mitigate IT risk when ‘ok’ just isn’t good enough. They are a dynamic, market-leading company with tremendous potential and I’m delighted to join them during this exciting period of their growth.”
Based in London, Testing Circle are specialist providers of short and long term Testing Staff, Training and Independent Consultancy to Enterprise and Mid-Market companies in the UK and Europe.
