Boatim Inc. Announces the Appointment of Ben Salter as Chief Financial Officer
MIAMI, Dec. 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Boatim Inc. (OTCQB: BTIM), a data-driven global online marketplace for buying and selling boats and yachts, announces today the appointment of Benjamin L. Salter as member of the Board of Directors effective immediately and as Chief Financial Officer (CFO), commencing January 1, 2021.
Mr. Salter will be responsible for scaling the internal finance and reporting capabilities of Boatim as well as further developing our systems in performance tracking, governance, and accounting. With several years' experience in corporate finance, he will also contribute substantially to secure Boatim's future project-related funding requirements and oversee most of our Investor Relations activities.
"I am extremely excited to join the Boatim team as the company enters an important growth phase in 2021," he commented, "and I look forward to enabling the company to bring its exciting vision of a digitally connected boating market to as many customers and users as possible."
"Having Ben come aboard gives me a lot of confidence that Boatim now assembles all necessary core competencies in-house to cope with the fast growth we expect for 2021, as it becomes increasingly important to have innovative product rollouts underpinned by sound corporate governance and financial frameworks. We are all very much looking forward to working with Ben, who has already impressed our board and shareholders while consulting for Boatim over the last few months," says Wolfgang Tippner, CEO.
Ben has worked with public and private companies for more than 18 years, mainly in corporate and commercial finance and M&A. His prior engagements include Ernst & Young, Bank of America, VP at Citigroup, and various finance and corporate development roles at Syngenta. He holds a Chartered Accountancy qualification from ICAS in the UK, a BA from the University of Oxford, and an MSc in Finance from the University of London.
