The firm has also appointed Dave McConachie as its new chief commercial officer.

The highly experienced pair have taken up their roles as the company gears up for the next stage release of its revolutionary data science delivery platform, Lumen.

They will work alongside Bellrock Technology co-founders, chief executive Adam Brown and chief technology officer Professor Stephen McArthur, plus new chair Steve Langmead who was appointed last month.

Hugh Lennie, a chartered accountant, brings close to 40 years’ experience to Bellrock Technology having held senior positions with Murray International Group, Weston Transport and Digital Sports Arena, among others. He has worked across a wide range of sectors, including technology, manufacturing, engineering, IT and computer gaming.

He said: “This is a very exciting time for Bellrock Technology. The company has a product in Lumen which is accelerating the exploitation of data science to enable more effective business decisions. I’m delighted to be part of a Scottish company that is taking its groundbreaking new technology into a host of new markets.”

Dave McConachie, who specialises in growing entrepreneurial high growth companies with ambition and potential to scale and expand in their markets, brings more than 30 years’ experience of sales and client acquisition to the business.

He added: “Bellrock Technology is a company with real ambition and vision and, in Lumen, innovative technology that will deliver real value in data science deployment to multiple sectors. This will enable automation, reduced cost and data-driven decisions. Bellrock Technology has put together a great team under new chairman Steve Langmead, with excellent backing from their investors including University of Strathclyde and ESM.
 
“I’m very much looking forward to continuing their upward growth trajectory and, being a proud Scot, creating more new jobs in our own back yard.”

Adam Brown, CEO, said: “I am thrilled that Dave and Hugh have joined Bellrock Technology. They have the quality and depth of experience we need as a company, with a proven track record in helping firms – especially high-growth companies with loads of ambition and potential – to scale and expand their markets. They are fantastic additions to our talented leadership team. Together we are ready to take Bellrock Technology into new sectors and reach new heights as a business.”
