Software firm 'set for growth' after office move
A business software firm says it is primed for growth after an office switch.
Open ECX has moved to Salford’s Cloister House.
Bosses say its larger headquarters leave the business “well-positioned for significant expansion in the UK and other territories” as it targets record £4.6 million annual revenue.
Formerly based in Manchester’s Blackfriars House, the firm helps companies carry out invoicing, ordering and statement reconciliation services.
Working across sectors including construction, energy and pharmaceuticals, it counts clients in the UK, Europe, the US and Australasia.
Nathan Ollier, chief executive at Open ECX – which is backed by private equity firm MonacoSol – said: “We have laid foundations to realise sustainable growth during recent years, and our move to new headquarters is an exciting step on this journey.
“The new office gives us plenty of scope to scale further.
“We had outgrown our previous base, and we have now increased our office space by 50 per cent, as well as improving the facilities for our team and customers to collaborate.
“There is a significant opportunity to grow further, in sectors which are currently underserved by automation technologies and by solving further challenges for existing customers.”
