Sarah Edmonds wins Active IQ promotion after just four months
POSTED 09 Oct 2014 . BY Jak Phillips
Edmonds possesses 20 years’ experience in the active leisure industry
Sarah Edmonds has been promoted to director of quality and standards for Active IQ, just four months since she joined parent company Premier Global.

Edmonds was announced in June as the new head of standards and compliance for Premier Global – comprised of both Premier Training International and Active IQ – having previously been interim head of CYQ at Central YMCA Qualifications. At the time, Edmonds was hailed as a valuable acquisition thanks to her 20 years’ experience in the active leisure industry, and has clearly continued to impress en route to a rapid promotion.

“In this new position, Sarah will have control over all areas of quality control and compliance within the company, which I know she will be fantastic at,” said Premier Global CEO Debra Stuart.

“She has extensive knowledge and experience from working within various areas of the health and fitness industry, including working as a fitness instructor when she first started her career.”
