Mark Robson has joined mental health provider Elysium Healthcare as chief financial officer.

He previously held the post of chief financial officer at dentistry giant Integrated Dental Holdings, where he oversaw the company’s expansion from 430 practices to 674.

The move strengthens the senior team at the relatively new company.  

Elysium was created last year from the divestment of 22 Priory and Partnerships in Care assets by Acadia Healthcare to satisfy demands from the Competition & Markets Authority. The assets were acquired by BC Partners, who have since backed two further acquisitions. It acquired Raphael Healthcare in February and Badby Group in April.

Commenting on his new post, Robson (pictured) said: “I am excited to be joining Elysium at this time. As a new market entrant, the group has already made an important impact on the sector. With organic growth and further strategic acquisitions planned, I am looking forward to working with the Elysium team.”
