CONNEXION2 Doubles its Workforce

Due to increasing demand for its expanding range of award-winning lone worker products and services, Connexion2 has almost doubled its workforce in the past six months. The Sheffield based company, which was originally launched in 2004, has grown from 14 members of staff to a workforce of 27.

Amongst the new employees, are six recently appointed managers who have been selected to help drive the company forward to its next stage of development. They include Tim Collin, Sales & Marketing Director, Alison Copsey, Channel Development Manager; Mark Dixon, Training & Services Manager; Katrina Wilkinson, Customer Services Manager; Lorraine Hughes, New Business Development Manager and Rob Harris, Marketing Manager. The new managers will work closely with Managing Director, Craig Swallow and SoloProtect Services Director, Ann de Vere.

Connexion2’s recent expansion follows the signing of a contract between Reliance and the NHS Business Services Authority to provide a total solution package to NHS staff working alone including the rollout of 30,000, i750 Identicom® lone worker alarms.

In addition Connexion2 has expanded its offerings by launching a range of SoloProtect Services, which are designed to provide comprehensive support in respect of all aspects of lone worker protection, and has also added to its Identicom range of lone worker protection devices with the launch of the t-series. In addition to offering all the proven benefits of the existing Identicom product, the t-series provides additional safeguards for vulnerable workers by enabling employers to create a Geo-fence or “safety zone” around a predetermined area and receiving alerts if their lone worker travels outside the predefined invisible boundary.
