Fraser Fisher, Chief Executive Officer of Redcentric commented:
"Following the highly successful launch of our employee Share-Save scheme last year, I'm delighted that so many new staff have joined the plan this year, and that existing members have chosen to increase their contribution. Through this plan, well over half of eligible staff are contributing to and sharing in the success of the business, which is a sign of the whole team's confidence and commitment to Redcentric's future success."
