Russell Start has joined the AGM Group as managing director.

When he starts at AGM on 30 July, 2018 Russell will lead the progression and sustainable growth of AGM Group’s core businesses: Gerson Relocation, Abels Moving and Momentous Fine Art; and the development of new strategic enterprises as part of a long-term strategy.

Prior to joining AGM Group, Russell was managing director of Pickfords for seven years and prior to that was joint managing director for Team Relocations UK.

“I am absolutely delighted to be joining AGM Group this summer,” said Russell, “it will be a privilege to work with such tremendous brands and I am thoroughly looking forward to helping put the group at the forefront of the UK market.  The opportunity to join such a distinguished Group, and help them deliver the ambitious growth plans they have, was too much of an opportunity to miss. I believe there is enormous scope for growth in the Group’s existing markets and brands, as well as tremendous opportunity to add additional revenue streams to the Group’s portfolio.”

Paul Evans, Company Chairman commented: “We look forward to welcoming Russell to the AGM Group in July.  Russell brings with him a wealth of knowledge and experience that will be invaluable as we continue to grow and develop all brands within the AGM Group. We see Russell as a tremendous addition to head our leadership team and to achieving our strategic goals.”
