Blexr has promoted Ian Hills, who is head of its finance and commercial teams, to be the company’s general manager in its Malta office

Mr Hills, who joined Blexr in December 2018, will now be responsible for the running of its operations on the island.

The performance marketing company, which won three awards last year, also has a second office in Barcelona.

Originally from South Africa, Mr Hills joined as head of finance before taking over the commercial side of the business early in 2019.

He introduced a dedicated business development team and set up commercial partnering, creating a dedicated analysis and reporting resource for all of Blexr’s major properties.

Mr Hills said: “I’m delighted to be taking ownership of Blexr’s operations in Malta.

“I’m excited to come to work here every day and I want our staff to feel the same way. We have achieved a great deal already but there’s even more that we can do, so I’ll be guiding our team to reach our ambitious goals.”
