ARI has strengthened its client relations team with the appointment of an experienced senior manager.

Kim Noble joins the company with more than 25 years’ industry experience overseeing procurement, product development, project delivery and customer service for large contract hire and leasing companies.

Heading up ARI’s client relations team, Noble will coordinate the account management function across the company’s entire client portfolio and drive forward its customer service strategy to improve operational wellbeing.

She will also be responsible for delivering change management programmes across the business, developing relevant policies, procedures and systems to support ARI’s continued growth.
