Altitude Group plc (AIM: ALT), a technology and services provider specialising in end-to-end solutions for the branded merchandise and promotional products industry, is pleased to announce the appointment of Max Roberts as an Independent Non-Executive Director with effect from 30th June 2026.
Max recently served as Chief Operating Officer of IFS, the global enterprise software company, where he lead multiple business units including, Industry, Service Management and Enterprise Asset Management. He joined IFS in January 2024 from Stripe, the payments and financial infrastructure platform, where he was Chief Executive of the UK business and subsequently led the EMEA region through a period of significant growth.

We set out to assemble the optimal Board for the next stage of Altitude's development, and with Max that ambition is largely realised. His experience in payments, in enterprise software and in building value from data at scale brings a perspective the Group will draw on as it executes its technology-led strategy. I look forward to his counsel as we continue to drive growth and deliver value for our shareholders."
Max Roberts commented: "Altitude sits at an interesting point in its market, with a strong technology foundation and a clear opportunity to create durable value for its members and shareholders.
