Uniworld Communications has announced the appointment of David Thorn as Head of Channel in its sales organisation.

Thorn has close to twenty years experience of the telecoms industry, where he has developed and managed channel sales for several major blue chip brands including NTL, Cable & Wireless and Mercury Communications. David has spent the last three years at Redstone, where he was Indirect Sales Director, managing all of the company’s telecoms dealer and reseller activity.
