In addition Kieron sits on advisory boards for the British Government’s UK Trade and Invest (Defence & Security Organisation) and various Private Equity houses.

“I am excited about joining WTG, particularly given our strong reputation and track record delivering effective online solutions into secure environments, our customers are all ‘A’ list government agencies,” said Sambrook-Smith. “I am looking forward to helping WTG achieve the ambitious growth targets we have set and strengthening our position as a leading advisor to the public sector on how best to utilise online solutions to achieve secure information exchange requirements, particularly at a time when efficiency and costs saving are so key.”
