Active IQ shuffles senior management team with two new appointments

Active IQ has appointed two new directors to strengthen its senior management team.

The awarding organisation has named James McPherson as its commercial director with a focus on growing the business as part of its five-year growth plan. Among his responsibilities will be the development of the new end-point assessments (EPA) service line.

Meanwhile, Georgina Shaw has joined the company as director of quality and standards. Her primary focus will be to ensure that standards are maintained across the diverse range of Active IQ approved providers, as well as securing compliance with the regulators.

"I am very pleased with our two new appointments who come at a time of growth and development at Active IQ," said Jenny Patrickson, Active IQ MD.

"James’ new role represents our commitment to drive growth and development while reinforcing our increasingly strong position within the end-point assessment.

"Georgie has a highly valuable skill set honed over years of working within quality educational programmes and we are very fortunate to have her join our team."
