Vision Critical Relocates for Expanded UK Team

Canadian-based custom panel and technology specialist Vision Critical has relocated its London office to accommodate its UK team, which has tripled in size in the last year.

The latest addition in the UK is Will Cooper, who joins as UK Omnibus Business Development Manager from YouGov and Pearlfinders, where he sold and managed accounts for the business intelligence community.

'This is a reflection of our expansion in the UK over the last 18 months and underlines our commitment to investing in continued growth and our exciting plans for the future,' explains UK Research Director Andy Morris.

Vision Critical hired 109 new employees in 2009, and says it plans to fill another 120 new global roles during 2010.

In addition, the firm, which has offices throughout the US, Canada, the UK, France and Australia, is aiming to expand operations into China, Germany and other parts of Europe.

At the beginning of the month, Andrew Iain Reid joined as MD of Corporate Development from his previous role as President of GfK Global Custom Research.
