Investigative and intelligence tech specialist Altia has expanded its senior leadership team with the addition of a Chief Operating Officer (COO) as it looks to deliver on its expansive growth ambitions.
The move sees Allan Dunn join the tech company as COO and as a new member of its Board of Directors.
This significant hire links flawlessly with Altia’s ambitious growth strategy, with Allan taking on responsibility for executing mergers and acquisitions and supporting the company’s expansion goals
Headquartered in Nottingham, Altia serves a global audience, providing law enforcement agencies, government departments, and private sector businesses with intelligence and investigation software.
The appointment comes during a period of growth for Altia, with the company having recently hired Sarah Saxton-Jones as Head of Product in September this year, which was preceded by two senior appointments in the company’s Asia Pacific team to strengthen its presence in the region.
Meanwhile, the company recently launched Altia HQ, a new flagship platform which is designed to streamline and accelerate the crime-solving process with the most innovative investigation software.
Allan joins Altia from private equity firm NorthEdge, where he served as Portfolio Director for the past eighteen months, advising Altia’s CEO and the Board.
His strategic insights and operational expertise during this period have already been instrumental in guiding Altia’s direction, making him well-prepared for his new leadership role.
As COO, Allan will ensure Altia’s operational plans are seamlessly executed, enabling CEO Rob Sinclair to focus on long-term strategy.
Rob Sinclair said:
“With Allan’s extensive experience in both private equity and C-suite roles, I’m thrilled to have him on board. His deep understanding of Altia and his success in driving growth across various industries are tremendous assets for us at this pivotal time.
“We’re looking forward to seeing the impact he will make as we look to grow our offering around the world.”
Allan brings over five years of experience as a private equity portfolio director and is a seasoned C-suite executive, with prior roles as COO and CFO.
A Chartered Accountant, he successfully led and delivered a $100 million exit for shareholders of a technology services company, contributing to its growth across EMEA (Europe, the Middle East, and Africa), Asia-Pacific, and the Americas.
On his appointment, Allan Dunn commented:
“I am excited to join Altia as COO and to work alongside a talented team dedicated to delivering impactful solutions in investigative tech.
“Altia’s commitment to innovation and client-focused growth is second to none and aligns perfectly with my ambitions. Over the past couple of years Altia has gone from strength to strength, and I look forward to contributing to its continued success and expansion moving forward.”
Altia’s decision to strengthen its leadership team supports its mission of providing law enforcement, government bodies, and private sector clients with advanced intelligence and investigation software.
It’s new flagship platform, Altia HQ, offers organisations working within these areas a holistic approach to investigations, allowing users to save time, improve collaboration and identify avenues of interest.
Providing a consolidated range of investigative modules, the software gives organisations that conduct investigations connected digital tools which will help guide their analysis.
Developed using cloud native technology, the platform adheres to the latest security standards and offers swift module upgrades and adaptations to ensure compliance and feature requirements are met, allowing customers to focus on their investigations instead.
