38642The Board of Nord Anglia, the education services provider, is pleased to announce the appointment of Simon Cashmore, aged 35, as Managing Director of the Group's Nurseries Division, with effect from 15 November 2005.

Mr Cashmore spent the previous ten years with the RAC. For the last three he was employed as Managing Director, Corporate Services, responsible for transforming the financial performance of the division (turnover in excess of £100m) through the deployment of a sales-led marketing approach.
