SAGE Group is pleased to announce that Rebecca Humble has joined the team as Chief of Corporate Development. Reporting to the Managing Director, this newly created Executive role brings additional focus to the strategy development and execution of mergers and acquisitions within Australia as well as the creation of a global acquisition strategy.
