[ClickPress, Tue May 01 2007] Vanco, the pioneering global Virtual Network Operator, announced that Tim Sullivan has been appointed as the new Senior Vice President for Vanco US. He will hold responsibility for both US New Business Sales and Account Management.

Tim will continue to be based in New York and will work with established teams across its three offices in Chicago, Connecticut and New York, to further increase sales and operational support in all of North America.

Originally from Australia, Tim was based in the United Kingdom where he was an integral part of sales team that brought in many of the major accounts on Vanco’s impressive client list. Based on his success in the UK, Tim was hand picked to help spike Vanco’s development in the US.

“Tim has a fantastic track record and since coming to the US has already contributed to finalizing the largest deal in the history of Vanco,” said Ted Raffetto, CEO Vanco US. “Given the immense growth potential of Vanco in the region – with the number of large, multi-national clients with sophisticated telecom needs – this is a very important time to increase our focus. “

“The United States represents possibly the most fragmented marketplace in the world. Even with thousands of operators, the largest carrier footprints cover only a small percentage of the country”, added Sullivan. “Vanco’s successful VNO model has a huge potential and I am looking forward to building on an already large client roster and strengthening our position across the region. US MNCs are looking to expand to every corner of the globe and the traditional telecoms carrier options are severely limiting in terms of reach, cost effectiveness and ability to execute in challenging markets and on a broad geographic scope.”
