Bio
Marc Melton
Rory is the kind of person every company needs on their team; Sharp, resilient, driven and conscientious. With GAME and Konami under his belt he has earned respect not from simply ’doing time’ and surviving in these challenging environments but delivering tremendous value despite the daily complexities and challenges. Whilst on my team Rory proved himself to be more than just sales. Critically and almost uniquely in the new age of the workplace he understands the interdependence of product, marketing, sales and distribution as well as the value of team work and emotional intelligence; A big picture guy who understands how all the small pieces work together to deliver results. Rory is very much one of the good guys and it would be a great pleasure to work with him again.
