Revive & Thrive Ltd is very pleased to announce that the company has appointed Hannah Bowden as Chief Executive Officer with immediate effect. The company has grown in the last twelve months from one employee to six and has enjoyed numerous successes during that period. Opportunities in 2015 mean that there is demand for new employees as well as external resource and the company has made the decision to formalise the management structure ahead of this growth.
The changes also mean that Director Matthew Powell will take on the role of Chief Operating Officer leaving, Founder and MD Mark Barnes, free to explore additional opportunities for the Company.
Mark Barnes said “I am really happy that Hannah has accepted this role. Her vision and passion for community combined with her knowledge and experience means she is absolutely the right person to take on this challenge.” Adding “With Hannah at the helm, we will now be able to take full advantage of the numerous opportunities that we know await us in coming months. These we look forward to passing on to our membership as well as the communities that Revive & Thrive are active in”
Hannah Bowden said “Mark’s energy and entrepreneurial skill has built Revive & Thrive into a truly innovative organisation, to be asked to take on this role within the business is a great honour. Revive & Thrive is more than just a single organisation it is also a growing community which I am thrilled to be leading into an exciting future. The evolution of our towns and cities is happening at an unprecedented rate and the self-organising, decentralised nature of Revive and Thrive means we are ready to respond and support this transition with speed and flexibility. I relish the opportunity to do just that.”
Matthew said “Revive & Thrive has seen fantastic growth over the course of this year that it has been amazing to be a part of. 2015 promises to bring more great things as we continue to evolve, innovate and provide real solutions for towns, cities and high streets across the UK.” He added “As Chief Operating Officer, I am particularly excited about continuing to develop our package of solutions and to helping people who are passionate about their place to improve the quality of the communities they live in.”
