Velocity Global, a leading provider of Employer of Record (EOR) services, has announced that its founder, Ben Wright, is returning to the company as Chief Revenue Officer (CRO).
“I’m thrilled to welcome Ben back to the company in an operating role,” said Francoise Brougher, CEO of Velocity Global. “Over the past three years, we’ve worked closely together on the board, and his deep understanding of the challenges faced by ambitious companies expanding across borders is what led him to start Velocity Global in the first place. I’m excited to partner with him as we enter a new chapter of growth.”
Wright founded Velocity Global in 2014 and guided its growth into a multi-billion-dollar enterprise before stepping down as CEO in 2023. Most recently, he served as a Limited Partner with the Colorado Rockies baseball club. With over two decades of leadership experience, he brings a strong track record of building high-performing teams and driving innovation in the global workforce sector.
“I’m excited to (re)join Velocity Global at such a pivotal time for the industry,” said Ben Wright. “We’re transforming how companies engage global talent—and that impact on people’s lives is what inspires me most. I look forward to working alongside this incredible team to drive growth and continue delivering seamless, compliant solutions to clients around the world.”
