BSC Education, UK.  Alex Cann has been appointed chief operating officer at BSC Education, the UK-based English language teaching group with year-round colleges in Brighton, London, Manchester, York, Edinburgh, Malta, and Kuwait, alongside its Young Learners summer program business. Alex was promoted from director of global operations, taking on a broadened remit spanning strategy, operations, quality assurance and organisational development. The appointment reflects BSC’s continued investment in operational leadership as the sector navigates market consolidation, shifting source-market dynamics, and rising cost pressures across ELT. “I’m proud to step into this role at such a pivotal moment for BSC and for the sector more broadly,” said Alex: “Having worked across our operations for a number of years, I understand first-hand what it takes to deliver a genuinely excellent student experience – and I’m excited to bring that perspective to a wider commercial and strategic remit as we position BSC for the next phase of growth.”
