Cheltenham-based email marketing specialist Acquirz is further expanding its operations following a successful 2024, with the addition of 'a bit of northern charm' to its senior team.
The agency, which provides B2B data and email marketing solutions to help a range of businesses acquire new customers, appoints Andy Currie, who has more than 30 years of experience in the sector, as group account director this February 2025.
Founded in 2019, Acquirz is known for its innovative email strategies, deployed using 'cutting-edge' systems including its own technology; and works with recognised bands including Admiral, the Co-op and EDF, along with national SMEs across a range of sectors.
The firm says Andy, who has previously held directorial roles
at Experian, Databroker and more, brings a wealth of knowledge about all
things B2B data solutions and email marketing, from sales and strategy to data analysis and cleansing.
In his new role, Andy will support the team to build on current business pipelines whilst also acquiring new leads.
His appointment follows a period of success for the firm with 'a raft of client wins' and new hires over the last 12 months, with a year of new product launches and company developments expected in 2025, too.
Andy said: 'I am really pleased to be joining Acquirz during this exciting period of growth. The team have already been brilliant, with an incredibly warm welcome.
'I have to say though, I am most impressed by their expertise; there is a huge wealth of business, sales and technical knowledge here, that I think really sets the company apart from others in the industry.
'The prospect of being a part of that reputation, but also being able to add my own energy, experience and a little bit of northern charm to it, is something that I’m especially looking forward to.'
Chris Skinner, director and co-founder at Acquirz, adds: 'We’re delighted to welcome Andy to the Acquirz team.
'From working with the team day-to-day, helping to expand our operations and reach, to supporting business growth with his knowledge and expertise, Andy has already proven himself as a valuable addition to an already strong team.'
