Kevin Willetts joins TIS as Non-Executive Director of Growth and Strategic Partnerships
Kevin Willetts has joined TIS as our new Non-Executive Director of Growth and Strategic Partnerships. The newly created position is a reflection of our ambitious growth plans and our commitment to strengthening existing and future customer relations by garnering a more comprehensive, strategic understanding of their needs.
Kevin brings extensive experience working with integrated retirement communities and will enhance our solutions and services to better cater to the evolving life safety and security needs of key operators within this sector. During five years with ExtraCare, Kevin was involved in the development and roll-out of some of the UK’s largest and most innovative integrated retirement communities and will be responsible for positioning TIS as a key partner in the integrated retirement community industry. He will be tasked with collaborating with customers to design and develop the next-generation of integrated retirement communities, where smart technologies are used to streamline services, help residents to live independently for longer, and better protect their people, places and spaces.
James Twigg, CEO at TIS, said:
“As we expand our solutions into one of our primary growth markets, Kevin brings a wealth of experience at commercialising integrated retirement communities. His time spent leading the development of hugely successful retirement villages at ExtraCare will be invaluable as we develop a more comprehensive, strategic understanding of our customers and the dynamics at play in their internal and external environments, enabling us to help further enhance their market offering.”
Kevin Willetts said:
“I’m absolutely delighted to be joining such a vibrant, forward-thinking organisation with an exciting growth plan focused on innovation, compliance and exemplary service delivery. The integrated retirement community sector will need substantial growth over the next 20 years just to keep up with age-related growth, requiring personalisation rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. I’m looking forward to working with IRC operators to help them navigate the complicated challenges of balancing cost of care with a successful commercial sales strategy.”
