Abloy UK Appoints Product Manager for Access Control Brand

Abloy UK has appointed Jason Boyce as Commercial Product Manager for its Aperio electronic access control solution.

Wireless devices from the company extend the reach of an access control system or replace mechanical locks with intelligent access control.

They operate wire-free which facilitates installation.

Boyce brings a wealth of experience from his previous roles, which include being a qualified electrician, working in the IP and telecoms sector, and 15 years in the world of enterprise access control before setting up his own business as an independent security consultant.

He then began his career with Abloy as a Business Development Manager in the education sector, before being promoted.

He says: “My background as a consultant has allowed me to take a step back and look at things differently and ask probing meaningful questions to find the best solution to a problem.

Often clients don’t know what solution they need, so we have to ask what issues they are trying to overcome and see things from a different perspective.

Ultimately, we are a trusted advisor, but we also have the portfolio of products to resolve their problems.

“I strongly believe in the Aperio system and the many benefits it offers a range of sectors, due to its flexible nature.

I am looking forward to proactively creating a new strategy for how to market and communicate this.

Our solutions are already very popular, but it would be interesting to take these into different verticals and identify where they can make a real difference.”

Pat Jefferies, Commercial Director at Abloy UK, adds: “Jason has a strong vision of how to implement his strategy and new ways of working that will better position us in the market and service our customer’s needs.

We are delighted to have him on board and are excited to see how he makes this role his own.”
