Wood has worked with RMC since its infancy, starting in sales and progressing through the ranks to become a company director in 2020. Wood will work alongside Nicole Spencer, who has also been managing director of the company since 2020. Speaking of Wood’s appointment, Spencer says: “I’ve worked together with Alex throughout my career at RMC and feel like we’ve both been the driving force behind its success. “We’ve been through the highs and lows together and he has always been there to support me, so it made complete sense to promote him to co-managing director. We looked at a different structure with him as managing director and me in a different role but felt like we work best together so will share the position.” In their joint management roles, Wood will concentrate on the dayto-day running of the company, with Spencer focusing on strategy. Together they will aim to push for company growth into new sectors and technologies while remaining a trade-only wide-format printer. Speaking of his appointment, Wood says: “RMC is in my DNA – I’ve been here since the beginning and wouldn't have it any other way. Working alongside Nicole has been the driving force of our success for years, and I have tremendous respect for her strategic vision.” RMC Digital appoints second managing director UK graphics and signage specialist, Imageco, has announced a string of recent appointments and promotions.
