After a record breaking year, CovertSwarm are pleased to announce they have appointed Will Morrish as their Chief Revenue Officer to spearhead the development and implementation of CovertSwarm’s sales and commercial strategy.
Speaking about the recent appointment, CEO, Anders Reeves said: “We’re delighted that we have expanded our leadership team, but particularly proud that it’s through the appointment of Will.”
“Will joins CovertSwarm at an exciting time, and will be bringing his expertise to our worldwide client base. It’s clear he’ll have a phenomenal impact on CovertSwarm’s growth and capabilities through 2023 and beyond, helping us to continue challenging the market – and the team couldn’t be happier to have him aboard.”
Will’s Background
Since 2012, when Will was working at Interoute (the European network provider acquired by GTT Communications for $2.3bn in May 2018), Will and Anders found they shared values in their drive to deliver boundary-pushing industry change through the work they were doing delivering corporate security, connectivity and performance in innovative and creative ways.
From there, Will spent two years at Alert Logic, one of the biggest global Managed Detection and Response providers, and Performanta, a cyber security provider with international customers across Africa, Europe and the United States.
It was here that Will discovered a passion for protecting corporate infrastructures from cyber threats, but also recognised that critical shifts needed to happen within the industry.
Speaking about his passion for protection and cyber attack solutions, Will said: “Every business knows they need protection, but many rely on point-in-time testing, don’t budget enough for the scope that’s needed or aren’t aware of their genuine attack surface.:”
“You need to get under the fingernails of a business and find out where the real security gaps are – to do that you’ve got to attack like a real adversary, truly breaking into their business”
Will’s appointment is the next step in CovertSwarm’s steps to strengthen their leadership team after appointing Julio Taylor as their Chief Marketing Officer back in November.
