<p>According to Neil Ackland, Managing Director for the Sound Alliance group, “Stephanie is the ideal candidate to lead and build the business at Qjump. She has an impressive specialist skill set in both event management and ticketing, and together with her long established industry relationships will play an integral part in our growth. Stephanie has already positively impacted on the company’s outlook with the introduction of a new team and is working on some exciting new potential customers.”</p>
