Customer Consulting expands to meet growing demand

As a result, CCL has appointed three people to key positions within the company:
• Ralph Tebby has joined CCL as Head of Business Development;
• Brian Jopling – one of the founders of CCL, in 1999 – has returned as Head of the company’s Financial Services Division, and
• Alex Robertson, formerly a consultant with KPMG, has become Head of Innovation.

"CCL has an excellent track record in producing sustainable business results for its clients – it’s that dedication and willingness to go that bit further by the consulting teams that our customers seem to value," said Ralph Tebby. "This creates great confidence when talking to the marketplace."

Jopling worked for CCL for some five or six years before joining Catalyst IT Partners as Managing Director. He then worked with the business consultancy, Budd, but has returned to CCL because he ‘likes CCL’s approach’.

Robertson was similarly attracted to CCL’s down-to-earth strategy of creating business results for its clients through a customer-focused approach. After leaving KPMG, Robertson joined Scottish Equitable, looking after front and back office operations, making significant improvements to the customer experience through speeding up and improving the quality of processes.

"Working for CCL has exceeded my expectations," Robertson commented. "Not only have I found that CCL employs high calibre, knowledgeable and skilful consultants but the CCL team believes strongly in doing the right thing for the client."

Simon Rustom, CCL’s Managing Director, commented: "The current economic downturn has brought an increase in demand for CCL’s advice. Organisations seem to be turning for advice to companies - such as ours – which has the ability to get results."

CCL’s operating ethos is based on helping its clients adopt a balanced approach between people, process and technology. Rustom explained: "We work at Board level, taking a customer-focused approach to growing our clients’ business by developing strategy and increasing operational effectiveness, through the managers and staff, which results in reduced failure demand and cost; increasing service levels and customer retention, thereby creating improved customer satisfaction and more sales."
