Rob Roy joins Double First Ltd

(Update 2 July 2008)

New Appointment

Rob Roy joins Double First as a Senior Account Manager

Double First is delighted to welcome aboard its latest Senior Account Manager, Rob Roy.

For the last three years, Rob has been a Strategic Consultant to Independent Schools with MTM Consulting. Before that, Rob was an Independent Financial Advisor as well as working with KPMG.

'Given my work with many Independent Schools and the market research and knowledge with which I have been involved, I have no doubt that Double First's flagship Engage MIS is the ideal software to help Schools achieve their strategic goals,' said Rob.

Perfect Choice

Having looked at the school Management Information System (MIS) arena, Rob chose to accept Double First's offer as he could see the value in the Engage product. ‘I could see the reason why schools get excited about Engage,’ said Rob, ‘and how it can genuinely make a real difference to so many aspects of a school.

‘I also wanted to work for an open and caring company, that places customer service above everything else and really aims to delight their schools.

'With this, and my longing to see Schools grow and flourish, there was no contest. Double First was the obvious choice,’ declared Rob.

Passionate

Having worked with Independent Schools for many years, Rob feels very much at home in this area and loves to see schools changing for the better with the right advice and hand-holding.

‘As many already know, I am truly passionate about working with Independent Schools both across UK and Internationally,’ said Rob, ‘and I can’t wait to get started!’

Piers du Pré, Group Chairman, was also excited with the new appointment. ‘Rob brings exceptional knowledge with him, which means we can really fine-tune Engage in the way that schools need it to be. I am very much looking forward to Rob joining the team,’ he announced.

A Grand Design

Rob is no stranger to being placed in the limelight. Recently, he took on the project of building his own home which didn’t go unnoticed by the Grand Designs team on TV's Channel 4.

Rob’s ‘Eco-House’ is a timber clad, triple glazed building made from recyclable materials, resulting in Kevin McCloud’s team from C4 taking unprecedented interest in the project.

Rob is married with three children in their teens.
