We have some great plans for Roland DG in the year ahead and I’m looking forward to helping the business go from strength to strength.”

Gillian Montanaro, the former head of marketing, has been promoted to the prominent position as head of EMEA marketing, involving the development of co-ordination and strategy Europe-wide.

Ms Montanaro has joined ranks with Jerry Davies; previous managing director of Roland DG UK who was recently promoted to president of European sales, as well as retaining his current position as chairman of the European sales team.
