About Our C.E.O.

William Welliver has been in Asset Protection and Consulting for over 30 years. Before opening HireHonest, he worked for many of the top retailers in the industry, including Zales Jewelers, Payless ShoeSource, May Department Stores and Barry’s Jewelers. He started, developed and directed the Asset Protection Program for Sport Chalet when they were severely lacking in this area. This gave him the knowledge and experience to understand what a retail company is looking for to help protect themselves as well as their profits and inventory.

In 1989, he founded HireHonest to provide background and screening to numerous companies, domestic and internationally. Many of his clients are in the retail industry due to his previous history and lasting connections he has made with his colleagues. They have been so impressed with the results HireHonest has been able to provide that the company is gaining new clients on a weekly basis.

His experience and dedication doesn’t stop with his background and screening services. William Welliver is also a skilled Asset Protection Consultant. He has consulted for many of our current client’s with open cases in their stores. Spencer’s Gifts, Abercrombie & Fitch, Stage Stores, Burlington Coat Factory, Pier 1, Bombay, KB Toys, and USC are just some of the companies that have seen significant results from his consulting. He is the Contact Director of Asset Protection for See’s Candies, Hickory Farms, Diane’s Beachwear, Brighton Collectibles, and Pandora.
