Fitness and leisure qualification body Active IQ has strengthened its team with the addition of three senior appointments.
Former YMCA head of quality and operations Michael Donohoe has been hired as head of operations, where he will be responsible for “streamlining” Active IQ’s systems and processes.
Donohoe has been joined by Valerie Keeley and Tad Chapman.
The former has become Active IQ’s external verifier for the North West region, responsible for ensuring quality assurance across training providers.
Chapman is the company’s new business development manager. Previously workforce development manager at SkillsActive, Chapman will make sure Active IQ’s qualifications meet the needs of employers across the sport and physical activity sectors.
Jenny Patrickson, Active IQ managing director, said the trio joins the organisations “at a time when there has never been more importance for the need of quality assured training”.
“With their combined industry knowledge and experience I have every confidence that they will help Active IQ grow and fulfil our ambitious aims this year and beyond,” she added.
