Quorso, the category-defining Intelligent Management Platform helping global retailers and hospitality businesses turn strategy into frontline action, has appointed Kristen Lyons as its new Senior Vice President of Sales. The appointment follows a partnership between Faraday Partners and Quorso’s leadership team, led by Julian Mills, CEO, and Phil Thorne, COO/CFO, as the company accelerates its next phase of international growth.

“Faraday Partners were outstanding to work with in our search for an SVP of Sales. They took the time to deeply understand Quorso’s culture and growth ambitions, which led to Kristen's successful appointment. Their thoughtful, rigorous and highly collaborative process, along with their understanding of our needs, pace and quality of candidates made the experience seamless - and an easy decision to partner with them as we continue to scale globally.”

– Julian Mills, CEO of Quorso.

Kristen joined Quorso at a pivotal moment as the business continues to scale its enterprise customer base across North America, Europe, and beyond. Reporting directly to Julian, she leads all aspects of the global sales organisation, with a mandate to build a repeatable, high-performance go-to-market engine capable of supporting Quorso’s ambition to become the category leader in intelligent operations.

Previously, she served in senior commercial leadership roles at Suzy, where she led strategic accounts, enterprise expansion, and customer success, contributing to significant ARR growth and consistently strong net revenue retention. Prior to this, she held senior commercial roles at Syndigo, Signal, Market Track, and Mintel, building a career defined by disciplined execution, data-led sales leadership, and a relentless focus on customer outcomes.

“Faraday Partners were brilliant to work with and ran a detailed, professional and well-structured process. They acted as true advocates, offering honest insight, clear, frequent communication and thoughtful guidance at every stage of the process.”

– Kristen Lyons, Senior Vice President of Sales at Quorso.

This assignment was led by Nick Fairclough, Managing Partner at Faraday Partners, with support from William Batt, Associate and Trinity Kershaw, Analyst.
