Wavestore has appointed Simon Shawley as its new Sales Director to oversee the company’s sales strategy and drive growth across EMEA.

Simon, who joined on 1st February 2018, has over 25 years’ experience in the electronic security market having previously held senior sales and business development positions for companies including Hanwha Techwin and DVTel.

“It’s great to join the Wavestore team at such an exciting juncture,” said Simon. “Organisations are increasingly utilising VMS to maximise their investment in electronic security and Wavestore’s ability to bring together third-party devices and sub-systems such as cameras, intruder detection, access control and video analytics from the world’s leading brands onto a common, future-proof and easy to operate platform, delivers clear benefits from both a technology and total cost of ownership standpoint.”

Wavestore has recently launched v6.10 of it’s award winning VMS, delivering a highly secure, robust and reliable video management platform underpinned by free technical support for its Partners and provision of flexible Upgrade Bundles, which eliminate reoccurring annual upgrade charges that are commonplace in the VMS market.

James Smith, Managing Director of Wavestore Global Ltd said: “We are delighted to have Simon on board to drive our planned growth and to continue to deliver the high standards of customer care our Partners have come to expect as the company expands its operations.”
