Fraser Gemmell, group chief executive, Pepper Advantage said: “The global business process outsourcing (BPO) market is estimated to grow between 4 and 5 per cent annually over the next five years, with volumes projected to reach US$440 billion by 2028.

“Our BPO offering presents a huge opportunity for Pepper Advantage and Clive’s skills and experience will be instrumental in driving further growth. His dedication to providing the highest level of data-driven customer service matches our own.

“I look forward to working with him as we continue to expand the Pepper Advantage Hubs to financial and non-financial clients around the world.”

On his appointment, Mr Kirkpatrick said: “Pepper Advantage’s commitment to developing the most advanced data and technology to support clients and enhance customer service sets the company apart.

“I’m thrilled to be joining at this exciting juncture and look forward to growing the Hubs together with the talented teams in both Fiji and Indonesia.”
