Award winning Wakefield based Web-Translations is pleased to announce further expansion of the company with the recruitment of a new Account Manager, Bekki Jacobs who is the second person to join the sales team in as many months.
Originally from Leeds, Bekki began her career in IT where she worked for ten years before moving to Oxfordshire. Ten years later Bekki headed back up North and after a short period in recruitment began work at Web-Translations. As well as holding a black belt in Thai boxing Bekki is a massive fan of CSI. She also loves travelling and her New Year’s resolution is to fit in a few more countries on her list of European places to visit in 2007 before venturing out to see the rest of the world.
Sales Manager Stella White says “We are thrilled to have Bekki on the team. This is an exciting time for Web-Translations, having recruited Jimmy to the sales team just one month ago, when we also celebrated a record breaking month! Bekki has made a fantastic start to 2007 and along with Jimmy is already in line to beat her targets!”
In November of last year, Web-Translations received both regional and national recognition for its continued business success after being nominated as a finalist in three categories at the Wakefield Business Awards, as well as a receiving a nomination in the Technology in Business category at the national Growing Business Awards. In April 2006 Web-Translations was recognised as the Best West Yorkshire Internet company at the Yorkshire Digital Awards.
Daniel Rajkumar, Managing Director, said, "Web-Translations saw fantastic growth last year and we are looking forward to a repeat of that in 2007. Achieving local and national recognition for our achievements last year was a brilliant boost to the team and we are looking forward to carrying this success on into 2007 and beyond. Both Bekki and Jimmy’s enthusiasm have spread through the team with them hitting the ground running just one week into 2007. 2007 looks even more promising than last year!"
Last, but not least, Web-Translations Managing Director, Daniel Rajkumar is a finalist for The Business Entrepreneur of the Year Award.
