These appointments highlight Amanda and Alice’s invaluable contributions to Escone as the company expands both its business operations and team, covering the North-east and the wider UK.

Escone Solutions, co-founded in 2015 by Directors Mike Charles and Kevin Wyness, has experienced significant growth, with its headcount reaching 14. In the past year alone, four new team members joined, necessitating a move to larger, more fitting office premises.

The company’s growth trajectory received a further boost earlier this year with the announcement of new and renewed business contracts exceeding £500,000. These contracts reinforce Escone’s growth plans across diverse sectors, including transport, food and drink, housing, and oil and gas.

Mike Charles, Director of Escone Solutions, expressed his appreciation for Amanda and Alice, stating, “Amanda and Alice are both very important and valued members of Escone’s team, contributing hugely both to the ongoing growth of the business and the strong, meaningful relationships we have built over the years with our clients. They both bring new ideas and fresh perspectives to their respective roles, and we are delighted that their dedication to the team and Escone has been rewarded.”

Escone Solutions continues to position itself as a key player in business applications support, leveraging its talented team and strategic leadership to drive innovation and provide exceptional services to its expanding client base.
