Vicon Welcomes Nick Santini as Director of Operations

With more than 20 years of operational leadership, Nick Santini brings a robust mix of knowledge and tactics that will assist him in tackling this new role. The experience Nick has held in previous roles, such as logistics manager, director of operations, vice president of operations strategy, and several other distinguishable positions, set him up perfectly to master this new role.

In his new position, Santini will help cross-functionally lead the center of Vicon’s service repair teams, and responsible for back-end operations, such as order fulfillment, inventory management and global supply chain. His efforts will be fundamental in improving our product lines, which supply users with cutting-edge technology, solving many of today's problems in the security industry.

"I am extremely excited to join Vicon as the director of operations," Santini said. "While I have several milestones I am looking to achieve, I will initially be focusing my efforts on overall operational efficiency to help our programs achieve optimal results. Beyond this, I look forward to working with Shane Compton, COO, and supporting my team in developing efforts to make our daily processes more streamlined."
