Woolpert has hired Chief Growth Officer Aaron Golden to advance its strategic growth plan by expanding into new markets and driving connectivity and collaborative sales globally. Golden, an accomplished sales executive and leader, brings over 20 years of experience helping companies accelerate revenue and market growth through building and supporting high-performing, cross-collaborative global teams.
Prior to joining Woolpert, Golden served as senior vice president of global sales at location technology firm TomTom, where he led the enterprise team to overdeliver on expectations and helped the firm achieve sustainable market expansion across the globe.
Working with Woolpert’s leadership team, Golden will focus on expanding Woolpert’s global brand presence and embracing cross-functional collaboration—aligning sales, marketing, and service delivery teams to streamline go-to-market efforts and enhance client support. With the completion of five strategic acquisitions in the last three years, Woolpert entered 2025 with more than 2,700 staff across five continents and an annual revenue of more than $650 million.
