Publishing-specific software solutions provider Publishing Technology plc, UK, has announced significant changes to management responsibilities following a review of its business throughout 2009.
The changes are within the Scholarly Online and PCG (Publishers Communication Group) areas and specifically recognise two management board members whose development in these sectors have been key contributions to the overall success of the Publishing Technology offering throughout 2009. In a move designed to deliver more strategic focus on PCG and International business development, Douglas Wright will give up his management responsibility of Scholarly Online to become Director of PCG and International Business Development. Wright will be building on the considerable successes he has contributed to in the international arena during 2009; significantly, overseeing the start-up of Publishing Technology in Brazil and the first significant online products sale for the group in Japan.
In a complementary move, Louise Tutton has been promoted to the role of COO, Scholarly Online. She will assume sole responsibility for this division that includes pub2web, ingentaconnect and library services. This appointment reflects the importance of the online academic and scholarly business within the wider context of Publishing Technology's development plans.
The company is also seeing some more tangible changes to their Oxford operation in February as they consolidate their Oxford and Elstree offices into one new and larger facility in Oxford.
