Cross will relinquish responsibility as COO for the group and focus on helping to continue building the KCS and Dancik brand across USA and Canada as the KCS Senior Vice President North America.
“Our acquisition of Dancik has been a tremendous success,” said Ian Bendelow, CEO, Kerridge Commercial Systems. “I believe our colleagues in North Carolina and customers there feel the same way. It has also proven to us that there is a tremendous opportunity for KCS through our Dancik operation in North America.”
Having guided KCS and Dancik through a very smooth integration program Cross is looking forward to focusing on North America to ensure that a very significant operation with K8 and Navigator (DNav) is built. “Clearly North America is a huge market and there are huge challenges, opportunities and lots of work to be done. It’s important for a long standing Executive member of the group to be there to spearhead the efforts. Dancik customers and prospects will appreciate with this appointment, just how serious the company is about North America.”
