BarterXchange Appoints Ian Jones CEO
Dr. Lee Oi Kum, Executive Chairman of BarterXchange Ltd., has
announced the appointment of Ian Jones as Chief Executive Officer.
Jones, formerly Managing Director of Bartercard in the UK, USA and
New Zealand, was a driving force behind the company’s phenomenal
success. A veteran in the commercial barter industry, he has been
involved in barter globally for 13 years.
In his new role, Jones will focus on growing BarterXchange into a
global brand spanning across Asia and the United States.
“We will expand into Malaysia in May or June this year. It is a
resource rich economy with a very wide range of industries which
will benefit from embracing barter as a business tool,” Jones
explained.
“BarterXchange, widely acknowledged as one of Asia’s fastest
growing trade exchanges, is poised for further expansion into other
parts of Asia. And as we expand across the region, we will bring on
board foreign talent...especially experienced trade brokers and
sales managers,” he added. “This is in line with our human resource
strategy of attracting the best talents to help us move forward and
grow into a global organization.”
