Golding (pictured) joins the company from Accuity, where he held the same role. He has also previously held senior leadership roles at Thomson Reuters.

Golding will be part of the executive leadership team and report directly to Access Intelligence chief executive Joanna Arnold. He is responsible for expanding Access Intelligence’s global business operations.

The appointment follows the group securing £10m in funding to boost product development at the end of 2020.

Access Intelligence acquired Pulsar in 2019 and media resource network ResponseSource in 2018. Its portfolio also includes media insight platform Vuelio.

Arnold said: “We are thrilled to have such an experienced strategic leader in Tom, who will help accelerate our ambitious growth plans and focus on the delivery of world class standards at every stage of the customer journey.”
