Formed in 1994, Cedrec currently employ 16 people, and plan to boost current turnover of approximately £500k by a further £1 million in the next three years.

New business executives Harry Murray and Courtney Marsden are the latest recruits to join Cedrec, which is looking to sustain demand for the advice it provides to help private and public sector organisations understand, interpret and comply with complex legislation.

Harry brings a background in sales and customer service to the position, working at various call centres in the North East, whilst Courtney joins Cedrec as a fresh graduate from the University of Sunderland.

Both will be involved in sourcing new sales using both inbound and outbound activity.

Cedrec offers a range of consultancy and subscriptions services which companies such as Virgin Trains, Nissan and Heerema Hartlepool use to improve the quality of their safety and environmental systems.

Business development manager, Julia Bradley, said: “It’s the diversity of the two that excites me – they work well together, combining Harry’s practical experience and Courtney’s academic approach.

“They share knowledge, ideas, and give each other encouragement, it’s been fantastic right from the start.”

“Harry and Courtney will be a huge asset to what is fast becoming a bright and forward-thinking business, and both have a positive future, playing a pivotal part in the long-term success of Cedrec.”
