Business focused UK broadband ISP, IT and Cloud solutions provider FluidOne has today announced the appointment of Graham Dickie as its new Chief Financial Officer (CEO), effective immediately. Graham will replace former CFO, Roy Hastings, in the role after he left during July 2024 by mutual agreement.
The new CFO is said to bring over 20 years of financial leadership experience to FluidOne and has worked in multinational businesses with revenues of upwards of £100m. In particular, the provider notes his extensive experience in driving change and creating value in both private equity backed and multi-billion dollar listed global organisations, which they said would be “pivotal in supporting FluidOne’s next steps in scaling up“.
Since a management buyout, led by CEO Russell Horton and backed by Livingbridge some 6 years ago, the business is said to have quadrupled in size to revenues of £113m and expanded its focus into IT and Cyber Security-led managed service provider solutions. The provider has also made nine acquisitions in recent years and is now aiming to achieve a turnover of £300m by 2030.
Russell Horton, FluidOne CEO, said:
“I am delighted to welcome Graham to FluidOne and am very much looking forward to collaborating with him in realising our 2030 vision. Our already talented team is considerably stronger with Graham on board. He brings unparalleled financial experience in buy and build strategies, combined with an immediate cultural fit, making him the ideal person to take us to the next level.”
