A number of management changes have been announced within the Avesco group following the creation of their new Audio Visual Services Division, which will be headed up by former Creative Technology managing director, Graham Andrews. As a result, Andrews hands over the day-to-day running of CT to Mark Elliott, simultaneously assuming the role of chief executive, in order to oversee the strategic development of the company. CT’s new managing director has worked with the company for the last nine years, latterly as operations director. "I have a long history in the industry, extending back to 1982, and recent years have proved both exciting and rewarding," said Elliott. "My role will now be to further develop the management structure underpinning a high quality and specialist service business, while supporting the growth of Creative Technology within the full framework of the AV Division."Also stepping up in the company reshuffle are Jon Hodgson, who becomes director of project management, and Guy Mapley, who is appointed director of sales. The roles of Andrew Hawker as technical director, Gary Holford as graphics director, Adam Berger as director of outside broadcast and Philip Threadgold as finance director, will remain unchanged.
