OneAdvanced, the leading software and services company, has appointed Alex Jeffery as SVP of its Managed IT Services business. The appointment comes as part of its transformation to scale the business over the next three years by organising its business around its customers across eight strategic vertical markets.

The Managed IT Services business helps organisations who are looking to maximise their IT investment across a range of services from hybrid cloud and infrastructure to modern workplace, cybersecurity, and service desk provision serving prominent customers such as St Andrew’s Healthcare, NHS, Irwin Mitchell, Foot Anstey, National Highways, and London City Airport.

The appointment underscores the company’s investment to deliver operational excellence to their customers and to driving future commercial growth. This move, to align more closely to the strategic sectors of its software business which include Legal, Government, Health and Passenger Transport, will allow the company to consolidate its customers’ IT needs with a single partner further strengthening those relationships.

Alex brings more than 20 years of experience in IT services, with extensive commercial and technical expertise across both public and private sectors. Before joining OneAdvanced, Alex served as Director of Managed Services at The Access Group and held prior leadership roles as Chief Operating Officer at Virtua UK Ltd and Capita.

Simon Walsh, CEO of OneAdvanced, commented on the appointment:

"Within our Managed IT Services business, we are privileged to support customers operating in some of the most critical sectors in society. Today’s organisations face the dual challenge of managing a rapidly evolving technology landscape while ensuring strategic growth and operational efficiency. Our services empower businesses to focus on their priorities while we manage their IT infrastructure and protect against cybersecurity risks.

This appointment strengthens our ability to deliver solutions that align with the needs of our focus sectors, ensuring we remain a leading partner for customers who rely on innovative IT services to thrive."

Alex will be instrumental in modernising OneAdvanced’s IT services portfolio, ensuring it evolves to meet the growing demands of customers. His expertise will enable the company to deliver secure, adaptable IT foundations that empower businesses to succeed in the face of rapid technological change.
