Ros Woodhead, Development Manager    Hello all, I have just recently joined Xn Leisure as the new Development Manager. I have a background in Web Development across diverse industries and I have worked for various organisations including Reuters and the Ministry of Defence. I am now looking forward to a new challenge working in the Leisure industry and I am so far enjoying my role with Xn. In my spare time I enjoy travelling to exotic parts of the world and doing things like jumping out of planes (with a parachute) and playing underwater hockey. Hope to meet you all soon.

Anna Wright, Sales Administrator   I joined Xn as a Sales Administrator at the beginning of February. Before Xn I had completed an Apprenticeship in Business Administration and shortly after worked for a Construction company as an IT Administrator. Whilst working at Leadbitter Construction I found my key skills to be communicating with management and staff on a regular basis and also ensuring the smooth running of my team. I look forward to starting my new role with Xn.

Bradley James, Junior Tester   I joined Xn as a Junior Tester at the end of April. Before Xn I worked for a games company as a Senior Tester. As a Senior Tester I conducted various tests to ensure the products complied with the license requirements and ensured that all new employees for my department were fully trained and completed their work to the constrained time limits. I will be looking forward to my new role and working with new colleagues at Xn.

Information is critical to the success of any business and the ability to systematically analyse business metrics, answer key questions, test hypotheses and evaluate outcomes is key.

Xn Insight allows the user to create dashboard items for themselves or team members through the simple application of filters, optimising information and interpreting KPIs in an accurate, timely and effective manner. This ensures that the right people have relevant information, with tabular and graphical data representations that can be exported into strategic reports. The dynamic crisp design allows you to drill down and step further into the detail to produce specific information on your business areas.
