Abloy UK has strengthened its team with the appointment of Simon Wilson as business development manager for the healthcare sector. With an extensive background in the industry, Simon will lead the business development of digital access solutions within both private and public healthcare settings.

Simon brings a wealth of experience to his new role, having spent over a decade within the ASSA ABLOY family. His journey began in 2004, where he specialised in mechanical master key systems. Over the years, Simon progressed within the organisation, showcasing his expertise in digital access solutions, notably PROTEC2 CLIQ, Abloy’s electromechanical master key system.

Simon joins Abloy UK, having been drawn by the opportunity to apply his expertise to the healthcare sector and get face-to-face with existing and prospective clients again. He said: 'When we talk about healthcare, people often assume this is limited to hospitals and GP surgeries. However, healthcare touches a range of sectors such as educational premises, corporate environments, veterinary clinics and pharmaceutical facilities.

'I’m keen to engage with stakeholders across all of these applications, and discuss the benefits of comprehensive digital access solutions for anyone tasked with healthcare management and drug control.

'My ambition is to connect with customers to explain how Abloy solutions such as PROTEC2 CLIQ, Aperio and the KL100 cabinet lock can positively impact on everyday life. For me, that’s the best part of the job, being able to show how our solutions can truly make a difference.'
