ATLANTA, Oct. 23, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- U.S. Security Associates announces the addition of three award-winning business development executives to the company's Global Accounts Team. Greg Wilson, John P. Yochum and Christopher J. Trevisan are leaving behind distinguished careers with leading competitors for the opportunity to be part of U.S. Security Associates' dynamic growth.
"We are proud to welcome three of the security industry's top business development professionals to our team," says Alton Harvey, Senior Vice President, Global Accounts Division. "As our extraordinary growth drives us to expand resources, we are seeing more of the industry's top talent migrating to U.S. Security Associates, and the relative increase in our capability to provide innovative solutions and thought leadership is exponential."
Before joining U.S. Security Associates, Greg Wilson set a new record for national and global sales with one of the company's major competitors, as a 12-time winner of top producer honors over 14 years. Now, U.S. Security Associates' clients reap the rewards of Wilson's passion for building successful partnerships and his keen aptitude for assessing enterprise needs and translating operational analytics into solution-oriented initiatives. As Vice President, National Accounts, he is proactively engaged with each client throughout every stage of the partnership, from coordinating smooth transitions across multiple sites to sustaining consistent, exceptional service.
John P. Yochum brings 28 years of security industry experience to the U.S. Security Associates Global Accounts Team. For most of the last decade, he was Director of International Accounts for one of the world's largest security companies. He has conducted physical security surveys and developed security programs for large Fortune 100 businesses, government entities, and foreign embassies, and he has consulted on special events, labor stoppages, and executive protection details. In his new role with U.S. Security Associates as Vice President, National Accounts, Yochum is focused on enhancing long-term value for national and international clients through development of strategies to reduce corporate risk and liability and enhance clients' bottom lines.
Christopher J. Trevisan represented two of the security industry's most prominent companies before transitioning to U.S. Security Associates. He has been ranked #1 in sales three times and #1 in profitability six times in the past ten years. Trevisan's approach is characterized by personal investment in every stage of the security partnership, beginning with expert needs assessments and recommendations. As Vice President, National Accounts, Trevisan remains the point person for his clients across all locations, maintaining levels of interaction that demonstrate his commitment to client satisfaction and foster trust, communication and continuous improvement.
Each of these new hires – Wilson, Yochum and Trevisan – is a point scored for U.S. Security Associates and its clients, but collectively, these three hires are an industry game changer. Advantage, U.S. Security Associates.
