Neil Herbert is to join Comtec as client relationship director from next week as Comtec beefs up its management team.

Herbert left resort transfer company Holiday Taxis as managing director at the end of August after nine months, citing personal reasons.

E-commerce director Ed Whiting is due to leave Comtec by the end of year to emigrate to New Zealand.

Comtec chief executive Simon Powell said the appointment of Herbert would be one of several new recruits to strengthen the company’s management team as it plans aggressive growth over the next few years.

Powell, who predicts consolidation in the technology suppliers sector, said: “I can see Comtec growing to three to four times its size in three to four years’ time.”

Whiting is expected to be replaced in the New Year, Powell confirmed.
