SUZOHAPP Announces New Executive Vice President Of Retail & Transportation

SUZOHAPP has announced the appointment of Simon James as its new executive vice president of retail & transportation.

James joined SUZOHAPP as managing director (MD) of the United Kingdom & Ireland on September 1, 2018, and has made a very positive impact on the company's business since.

James brought with him 20+ years of experience in the payments industry where he held several senior international leadership roles during seven years at Elavon Payment Services, a leading global provider of financial payment services to the airline, government, hospitality, retail and healthcare sectors. His deep industry expertise will support SUZOHAPP's international initiatives in the cashless payments area, which has a heavy retail and transportation focus.

"Thrilled"

"We are thrilled to extend Simon's remit within the SUZOHAPP team," said Wilbert Bieleman, president of SUZOHAPP's Europe-Middle East-Africa (EMEA) Region. "His experience in his first year in our business has given him an understanding of our customer base that will allow us to better serve our customers and support company growth."

As managing director of SUZOHAPP UK & Ireland, James will continue to lead the Salford, Chessington and Ireland offices, alongside his new EMEA retail & transportation role. Simon has been working on fortifying the UK & Ireland structure, enabling him to now start driving wider pan-EMEA initiatives.
