Derek Hallam takes on global role at Viddyoze

Preston-based video technology specialist Viddyoze has appointed Derek Hallam as VP of worldwide sales.

Prior to joining Viddyoze, he was enterprise business development director at GTT Communications, the global cloud networking provider to multinational clients. He has also held senior sales positions at IBM.

The company has ambitious growth plans, aiming to become a £500m business within the next couple of years, as well as the global leader in automated video content and animation.

"I’m looking forward to making a real mark; not only personally, but also by coaching and developing a strong sales team that is instrumental in the growth of the business moving forward.” David Chamberlain, co-founder at Viddyoze, said: “We’re so pleased to have Derek on board to support our sales strategies and help us on our path to make Viddyoze the number one animation platform globally. We were impressed with Derek’s wealth of experience and consultative, sales-led approach and are confident he will be a great asset to our team.”
