Rockstead is to open two international offices in Ireland and Spain.

The move comes as part of the expansion plans the financial services risk advisers and due diligence company announced earlier this year.

Offices are opening in Dublin and Madrid to service the Irish and Iberian markets. The European expansion will be overseen by Rod Moulton, Rockstead’s sales and marketing director.

“We have carried out a significant amount of research in the market over the past year and as a result believe there is a real appetite for our services across Europe,’ said Brian Pitt (pictured), CEO of Rockstead.

“We know the Irish market place well and have built good relationships with a number of customers in Dublin and the establishment of a local office will help to cement those relationships.”

Pitt added: “Rod has a vast amount of experience in Spain and Portugal and he is building a team of local experts to create a European hub from Madrid. Both Dublin and Madrid are exciting extensions of our proposition and we will be announcing key appointments in both locations over the coming weeks.”
