He joined n2s in 2009 as a warehouse operative and over the years has held management responsibility for the company’s warehousing, recycling, engineering, purchasing and sales operations. Prior to his new appointment Ben was Group Commercial Manager.

Sarah Goddard’s initial career in finance began after leaving school, working in the family business and at a Cambridge-based computer firm, before experiencing four years as a flight attendant living in Abu Dhabi. On her return, Sarah joined Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust in 2011 where she was a Management Accountant/Senior Financial Analyst for four years, before moving on to work in financial management roles at several organisations over the course of the next ten years.
Commented Sarah: “I am delighted by the opportunity of working closely with colleagues across all departments and to be supporting a highly receptive senior management team who value the strategic role that sound financial management plays throughout the entire business. I’m also excited by what we do as a service business by making a positive difference to the environment and supporting our customers in meeting and achieving their ESG objectives and commitments.”
Added n2s CEO, Rob Bolton: “Having Ben and Sarah on board in these two very key positions is testimony to their proven career track records and abilities. Ben knows n2s and the business of IT asset disposal and lifecycle management inside out which gives me total confidence in his new role as Commercial Director. His career trajectory at n2s highlights how the company supports and rewards hard work, ability and results. Equally, Sarah’s wide and varied experience as a Finance Manager in a cross section of industry sectors brings new vision and best practices to n2s, ensuring the smooth running and efficiency of our financial operations as we continue to grow.”
