St Ives is pleased to announce the appointments of Charles Jarrold and Jamie Booth, as Group Business Development Directors.

As previous Southernprint employees with a wealth of experience and success, both Jarrold and Booth are expected to benefit St Ives and its customers, in further driving the company's value added business model across the group, leading to increased sales and superior customer service.

Charles Jarrold, previously the Managing Director of Southernprint, and with over 15 years in print and publishing, comments, 'I am very excited to join St Ives, its range of services place it in a fantastically strong position to help customers thrive from the combination of digital media and print. As our customers' businesses change to embrace new technologies, so must their suppliers.

'In working with Jamie, our role at St Ives will be to develop communication campaigns for customers that enable them to communicate more effectively with their target audiences, combining all aspects of print, digital media and data management. By providing the tools for cutting edge, cost effective and results driven marketing and publishing applications, our customers can concentrate on their core businesses. What's more, they can do so with all St Ives' experience and resources at their disposal.

Reporting to Andrew Clay, St Ives Group Sales Director, Jarrold and Booth will be responsible for developing strategic relationships with major customers for both the Commercial and Media divisions of St Ives, as well as building on the success of such services as, Forward Thinking, DNA and other valuable customer solutions.

With previous Sales roles held at Southernprint and Pindar, Jamie Booth brings 15 years experience to the role, commenting, 'The current and future marketing and communications landscape is changing. In maximising the opportunities for our clients to engage directly with their customers, access and control of customer data is critical. In this area, both Charles and I will use our experience to further develop the St Ives' offering across the business, and ensure its continued market leading position.'
