YORK, U.K. - TelAve -- Vismo, the tier-one critical event management company, has appointed Tom Cowling as CEO. He arrives from Ernst & Young, the multinational professional services partnership, where he was a business development director.

With a focus on expanding the customer base of the Vismo Locate & Protect App, which has more than 450,000 users, Tom says, "I'm very excited to have joined such a talented team, which has built a number of innovative products, all centred around the crucial purpose of keeping people safe at work."

Chairman and founder of Vismo Tim Williams comments, "Delighted to welcome Tom to the team. Tom's arrival comes at an exciting time for us, as Vismo and the lone worker sector continue to expand rapidly both in the UK and the US, our key markets. Management in the private and public sectors, and NGOs, are increasingly aware of the need to keep employees safe while travelling and working. Tom is well placed, alongside his team here at Vismo, to address their security concerns."

Before joining Ernst & Young, Tom worked in fast-moving B2B environments like Vismo's, in the UK and internationally, where he gained knowledge and experience in growing businesses through developing new routes to market and expanding existing customer bases.
