Vernon Irvin has joined the company as Chief Revenue Officer.

In this role, Irvin will lead G-P's revenue generation efforts with oversight of the entire Global Revenue organisation comprising sales, partners, business development, revenue operations, sales enablement, and training teams.

Irvin is a seasoned executive who brings decades of experience leading software and tech-enabled businesses. Most recently, he was the CRO and co-CEO at Everbridge, a $400m SaaS communication business, where he led the company to 25-35% growth each quarter.

"Vernon will be instrumental to our next phase of growth and delivering on our goal of providing companies access to the entire global workforce with exceptional customer experience," says Bob Cahill, CEO, Globalization Partners.

"His proficiency in building infrastructure, complemented by his leadership philosophy and customer-first mentality, will be invaluable as we continue to eliminate barriers to global business across new markets and industries around the globe."

​​G-P created the Employer of Record industry in 2012, shifting the paradigm that required companies to have subsidiaries or local branch offices to build a global workforce enabling companies to hire talent from anywhere in the world.

Since then, demand for this new way of hiring has exploded as companies around the globe embrace hybrid and remote working.

"I'm thrilled to be joining an innovative company like G-P at a time when there is so much opportunity to bring our Global Employment Platform to new customers around the globe," Irvin says.

"I look forward to working with the team to develop go-to-market strategies that accelerate demand to enable the everywhere workforce."
