OVEEL, THE NORWICH BASED FINANCIAL REPORTING SOFTWARE COMPANY, IS PROUD TO ANNOUNCE ITS NEW ROLE AS THE OFFICIAL REPORTING PARTNER OF PREMIERSHIP RUGBY SIDE GLOUCESTER RUGBY. This landmark partnership highlights the growing importance of smart financial reporting in sport and community organisations, while also opening up exciting opportunities for fans and businesses to engage with their Club in new and meaningful ways. Supporting Gloucester Rugby and the Gloucester Rugby Foundation Roveel’s platform, renowned for its intuitive drilldown functionality, real-time dashboards, and powerful reporting tools – is already being deployed to support both Gloucester Rugby and the Gloucester Rugby Charitable Foundation. The system enables the Club and its Foundation to monitor a broad range of financial and non-financial metrics, streamlining analysis, enhancing productivity, and providing management with deeper insights for faster decision-making. The Foundation, which delivers life-changing community programmes across
Rugby Club Gloucestershire, will also benefit from Roveel’s capabilities, ensuring charitable resources are tracked, managed, and utilised as effectively as possible. A Partnership with Purpose The collaboration is about more than technology, it’s about strengthening the bonds between Gloucester Rugby, its supporters, and the wider business community. As part of the partnership, businesses who sign up for Roveel can choose to donate their first month’s subscription back to Gloucester Rugby. This unique initiative allows companies to improve their own business reporting while directly supporting the Club they love. By blending cutting edge software with a community-first approach, the partnership embodies the shared values of teamwork, innovation, and giving back. Leadership Commentary Mark Donaldson, CEO of Roveel, said: “We’re thrilled to become the Official Reporting Partner of Gloucester Rugby. This club is at the heart of its community, and we’re proud to not only provide reporting solutions but also create a way for fans and businesses to contribute directly
to their team. This is about working smarter, making better decisions, and giving back to the communities we serve.” Matt Mulcahy, Director of Finance and Operations of Gloucester Rugby Club, added: “Gloucester Rugby is delighted to welcome Roveel into our family of partners. Their platform is already helping businesses across the country make sense of their data, and now they’re giving our supporters the chance to make a real difference to their businesses whilst supporting our Club. It’s a partnership that reflects innovation, teamwork, and community spirit.” Driving Smarter Business Decisions Beyond Rugby While this partnership shines a spotlight on Gloucester Rugby, it also showcases Roveel’s broader mission: empowering businesses, charities, and organisations of all sizes to make better decisions through improved reporting.
