London, February 20 2024 — Encompass Corporation, the global provider of real-time digital Know Your Customer (KYC) profiles, has appointed Job den Hamer, former CEO of CoorpID, as Head of Business Development to bolster its mission to revolutionise KYC with Corporate Digital Identity (CDI).
With more than 20 years of experience within mid-corporate and corporate financial services markets, den Hamer has held senior roles across sales, business development and change management. Most recently, he conceptualised and grew CoorpID within ING’s innovation network, with it helping banks to transform KYC outreach before being acquired by Encompass last month.
As Head of Business Development, based in the Netherlands, den Hamer will be a key member of Encompass’ sales leadership team, under the direction of Chief Revenue Officer (CRO) Steve Hadaway. He will be responsible for maximising the value the CoorpID platform brings to Encompass’ global banking customers, with the acquisition furthering Encompass’ efforts to solve the challenge of identification and verification of corporate and institutional clients with its game-changing CDI platform.
CoorpID was founded by ING Labs in 2018 to allow global banks to automate outreach and gather private KYC data directly from corporate banking customers, providing a repository that allows the corporate to manage all their banking relationships.
Its functionality enables Encompass to build a complete KYC profile that combines authoritative public information with private information directly from customers. This makes CDI possible for the first time, providing a unified source of truth and unrivalled visibility into risk. As a result of this complete customer profile, the need for unnecessary outreach is eliminated, improving customer experience without compromising on robust regulatory compliance.
Job den Hamer, Head of Business Development, Encompass Corporation, comments: “Joining Encompass at such a pivotal time for the organisation is a fantastic next step, which allows me to continue my efforts to contribute genuinely exciting innovation to the financial services industry, which improves the KYC journey for banks and corporates.
“CDI offers real value, solving critical challenges banks face today, and to be involved in this journey, and able to carry on the story of CoorpID as part of Encompass, is a huge privilege.
“The bringing together of Encompass and CoorpID will facilitate change and impact like we have never seen before, and I am thrilled to play my part in bringing the possibilities to life.”
Steve Hadaway, Chief Revenue Officer, Encompass Corporation, adds: “There is so much to be excited about on the road ahead for Encompass, and I am delighted to follow the acquisition of a uniquely strong platform in CoorpID by bringing Job on board.
“Not only does he possess decades of experience and enviable knowledge, but being the driving force behind CoorpID means he will add a great deal to what we bring to customers and the industry alike as we lead the way in transforming KYC with CDI.”
