Board and Senior Leadership Team Changes

The right structure and team to deliver our ambitions

 

Eagle Eye, a leading SaaS and AI technology company that creates digital
connections enabling personalised, real-time marketing at scale, announces the
following changes to the composition of its Board and senior leadership team,
as it focuses on delivering the next stage of growth.

 

As stated in the Group's Interim Results, the senior leadership team has
recently been strengthened through the appointment of key people to lead each
growth pillar, ensuring the business is well resourced for its next stage of
development. This includes the appointment of Jeff Baskin as Chief Revenue
Officer, based in the US, to support the Group's increased focus on the
significant North American loyalty market. Al Henderson has transitioned into
the role of Chief Partnership Officer, overseeing the important OEM
relationship announced in January 2025 and the Group's expanding base of
partners.

 

As part of these leadership changes, Steve Rothwell, founder and CIO, will
step back from his operational role within the business. Steve will step down
from being a Director of the Company on 2 April 2025 and move to an advisory
position, ensuring the business continues to benefit from his passion and
customer focus, which has been so key to Eagle Eye's success to date.

 

Zyed Jamoussi, co-founder and currently co-Managing Director of the EagleAI
business, will move into the role of Group CTO, reflecting Eagle Eye's
increasing focus on productisation and AI innovation. Zyed is an experienced
executive in the retail analytics industry, with more than 20 years'
experience supporting retailers and FMCG companies in their CRM strategies
across Europe, before co-founding Untie Nots (now EagleAI) in 2016. Cedric
Chereau, EagleAI co-founder and co-Managing Director, continues to lead the
EagleAI business.

 

Steve Rothwell, Founder of Eagle Eye, commented, "Eagle Eye has been on an
incredible journey since my original concept for the business in 2003,
becoming a platform which is the best in the world at delivering personalised
loyalty at scale. It has been a privilege to work with many of the world's
leading retailers in building, deploying and scaling their best-in-class
loyalty programmes.

 

As a founder, you're always looking for the moment when your 'baby' is ready
to stand on its own and thrive. Over the past year, we've taken huge strides
in accelerating our SaaS transition and improving scalability, and I couldn't
be prouder of the progress we've made. The talent, teamwork, and tenacity
across Eagle Eye have never been stronger. That is why I believe now is the
right time for me to step away from the day-to-day operational role.

 

One of the greatest privileges of being a founder is helping others grow.
While I'll no longer be involved in the day-to-day, I'll continue to support
the business in my role as adviser to the Board - cheering the team on and
contributing where I can as Eagle Eye enters this exciting next chapter. As
for me - I'm looking forward to spending a little more time with my family: my
wonderful wife and two kids, who have supported me every step of the way on
this journey."

 

Tim Mason, CEO of Eagle Eye, commented, "As we embark on the next stage of
Eagle Eye's development we have enlarged and strengthened our senior
leadership team to ensure we have the right focus and capacity in each of our
growth areas, setting the business up to deliver our £100m revenue and 30%
adjusted EBITDA targets.

 

Under Zyed's product-first leadership, and with the newly bolstered leadership
team in place, the business is set to continue its growth - innovating our
products, building our SaaS capabilities, and scaling the platform to serve
the needs of the world's leading businesses.

 

I would like to extend my gratitude to Steve for his visionary leadership and
remarkable contributions to Eagle Eye as CIO. He saw the opportunity that
technology would bring to personalise marketing very early on, and through a
passionate dedication to 'problem solving' has developed a platform that is
second to none in meeting the needs of the world's most demanding retailers.
We are delighted he will continue to provide his counsel to the Board, as we
work together to deliver our ambitions."
