Simon Gulliford - Non-Exec Director

FST are delighted to announce the appointment of Simon Gulliford as a non-executive director. Simon's primary focus is to help FST develop new propositions and service offerings for the financial services marketplace. He brings many years of experience in this area, having been responsible for defining the marketing strategy for several major brands.

Working directly the FST Board of Directors, he will apply his trademark practical approach - backed by a thorough appreciation of the latest analytical techniques - to help FST position itself as the leading outsourced customer communication supplier.

Simon has also recently been appointed on a part-time basis, as Chief Marketing Officer of Standard Life, where he will lead the marketing direction for the insurance giant. His primary focus will be to re-position the brand to reflect a growing focus on higher-margin products across their retirement, investment and insurance portfolio.

Until August 2004 Simon was the Group Marketing Director for Barclays plc, where he instigated significant change and built Barclays into a world-class marketing organisation. Prior to this he was Marketing Development Director of EMAP plc and helped launch and develop magazines such as FHM, Red and Heat, as well as working closely with all EMAP music and entertainment interests.

Simon has also carried out major pieces of strategy work for the former Forward Trust Group. He has been co-owner of a chain of Honda dealerships, non-executive director of City Motor Holdings and has carried out marketing consultancy for both Audi and Jaguar. As well as acting as the Marketing Director of Sears, helping to re-launch and subsequently demerge Selfridges.

Simon's appointment represents a significant investment for FST and is evidence of our commitment to building an exceptional team. We are looking forward to working with Simon and drawing on his wealth of experience to refine our marketing strategy and help FST create compelling new propositions.

Regards,

Ron Ramage
Managing Director
