John Dobson, chief executive of SmartSearch, said: “With the invaluable collective experience, Lee and Matt will help drive our expansion in to new and existing markets with our enterprise solutions whilst Chris will focus on the continued development of our extensive 4,500 client firms and oversee the delivery of our new enterprise solutions.
“They each bring new ideas and skillsets, which will be invaluable in helping us to achieve our long-term aims.
“There is a huge market for anti-money laundering solutions in the UK and the events of 2020 have brought issues such as ID verification to the fore.
“This has generated great demand for our product, as we recorded our busiest ever month in September.
“These three new appointments will build on the success so far and help us achieve our goals in 2021.”
