Epitaph Product Consultant – Peter Linsell joins EDGE and Ian Quance retiring


EDGE IT Systems are delighted to announce that Peter Linsell (Managing Director of Peter Linsell Management Consultants) joined our team as Product Consultant on 31st August.

Peter brings with him 27 years experience in the bereavement services sector, including ten years as manager of the cemeteries and crematoria at Kirklees Council, four as Technical Services Manager at the ICCM and the last thirteen years running his own consultancy business.

Peter’s reputation in the bereavement sector is unparalleled, having built his company into the go-to service provider when burial and cremation authorities need consultancy advice and support on any aspect of their operation.

On his appointment, Peter commented “This arrangement allows me to join EDGE at a very exciting time for the business. When Chris Edge approached me about the position, it soon became clear that we are a perfect match in terms of our values, our commitment to customer service, and the need for agility and teamwork in delivering the service.”

While the position importantly allows the scope for Peter to continue delivering and developing his own first-class consultancy business to the bereavement services sector, it is also seen as an important and appropriate opportunity to continue the fantastic work Ian Quance has been doing for EDGE since 2016.

“It is really sad that Ian has had to take a step back due to his health issues and it is my intention to take the baton and run with it and ensure we do all we can to continue his legacy”, said Peter.

Ian welcomed Peter with “Peter could not be a better replacement for me. He was my first tutor when I started studying cemetery management with the ICCM and has been a friend ever since. I know he’ll do a great job going forward.”
