Daron has a strong background in customer service management, his career having started at Telewest Communications Plc and continued at Reality Group (Great Universal Stores Plc). He went on to join G-T-P Group as Customer Service Manager one month before it launched its first card scheme in 2001 and rose to become Chief Operating Officer. In 2011 he joined William Wilson at Directlogic Ltd as a Senior Consultant, undertaking a series of interim assignments transforming businesses with his knowledge and experience of cost reduction, business strategy and process management while helping to lay the foundations for GLOBAL-365 PLC.
With a strong background of achievement and leadership in the financial sector, Ron held management positions at Debenhams, Provident Finance, Allders and Courts prior to joining Essex County Council as Income Manager. He pioneered and led Essex Guardians, a specialist safeguarding team to manage the financial affairs of vulnerable adults. With 22 employees, the operation achieved a net profit of £750k in the first 2 years and controlled £28m of client assets. Ron’s exemplary commercial acumen combined with his in-depth experience of sales and marketing and his commitment to social justice makes him the ideal person to lead GLOBAL-365’s sales operation.
William’s career began in financial services with Lloyds & Scottish Finance before he joined Xerox, rising to run the UK Advanced Systems Division. He subsequently joined AVM, an international management consultancy advising and acting mainly for investment funds, with a client list including JP Morgan Cazenove, Imperial Life and Lazards. In 2001 William founded G-T-P Group which became the UK market leader in the operation of own label B2B account cards, winning blue chip clients including Homebase, Johnson Controls, PC World, Pilkington, Staples, Travelodge and Wolseley. Milestones included developing CAPTURE™, one of the fastest credit decisioning engines in Europe, enabling credit accounts to be opened for creditworthy businesses in less than 20 seconds. In 2009 William left and subsequently founded GLOBAL-365 PLC. William’s key objective is to continually update the company’s strategic vision and maintain its market leadership through innovation.
Born in Telford and rescued shortly afterwards from the monotony of a Birthdays store by William Wilson, Scruff has since led a charmed life. Spurning formal education in favour of watching 4Music he has developed an unprecedented appreciation of bling and its power to change the life of everyone for the better. In 2015 he founded blinged-out.com and has subsequently endeavoured to combine the development of this business with promoting the social justice agenda of GLOBAL-365 PLC and the Sunday Times campaign to legitimise the correct labelling of Manuka Honey.
As the Chief Revenue Officer at GLOBAL-365 PLC, I oversee the sales and marketing of the SMETS2 Prepayment platform, a tech for good product that offers cash over the counter and online payment methods, customer-focused debt management and retention tools, and smart metering benefits to both energy suppliers and their customers.
