Berendsen: “I am very pleased and excited to return to the EO Group after six years. My experience and passion for digital marketing and trading, coupled with the experience I have gained working for one of the leading manufacturers in the industry, will benefit the group significantly.

“I have already had a preview of the platform enhancements that have been launched during my time away, and I am very excited and impressed with the possibilities it can provide in taking Euroffice and UK Office Direct to the next level, together with an eager, enthusiastic, and talented team. I honestly cannot wait to start!”
