Neil Muller will take up his position in a few days and is the latest in a number of senior appointments that the firm has made in the last year to spearhead growth he comes with an impressive CV that includes three and a half years at Daisy in a position of CEO, which ended this summer and a career at Computacenter that spanned two decades.
Other joiners have included former Daisy staffer John Holt as COO and ex-Computacenter employee CTO Kevin Linsell.
One of Muller’s first tasks will be to bed down the acquisition of managed services player 25sevenIT, which was picked up at the end of last week.
At the time of the Horizon deal no secret was made of the plans to expand the business with the investment specialist stating , that it planned to “Execute a targeted acquisition strategy to build and integrate deeper capabilities in security and data management”.

In response, Mark Hanson, managing director of 25sevenIT, said it would benefit from becoming part of an organization with the same broad ambitions.
