Cloudy Nutanix has appointed Andrew Gill as Channel Director for Western Europe & Sub-Saharan Africa (WEURSSA).
Responsible for leading all channel and OEM activities in WEURSSA, Gill will oversee Nutanix’s relationships with resellers, distributors, regional system integrators and technology partners in the region. Additionally, Gill will play a role in driving channel-focused initiatives such as Nutanix Cloud Bundles, an offering to access Nutanix enterprise cloud software and solutions.
This management bundle lets Nutanix expand access to its solutions, with an offering that meets the needs and budgets of any company as an essential addition to its Enterprise portfolio, it is said.
Commenting on his appointment, Gill said: “The powerful combination of Nutanix’s unsurpassed multi-cloud approach and its clear commitment to driving true business value for customers and partners alike make it a highly desirable organisation to join.” He continued: “It was clear to me that as well as Nutanix’s technology and Partner programme, the company genuinely cares about the success of its customers and partners hence its enviable NPS score of over 90 over the last seven years – that’s a company I want to be part of.” [Note: never us a preposition to end a sentence with. Ed.]
Gill joins Nutanix from his position as Director of Partner Ecosystems at IBM, where he was responsible for the sales and strategy for the partner ecosystem for the UK and Ireland.
Dom Poloniecki, VP Sales, WEURSSA at Nutanix said: “Andrew has a proven track record in consistently overachieving on business objectives by using his expertise in running highly successful, profitable sales teams and partner ecosystems. He is a welcome addition to the team and both his experience and passion, as well as his extensive executive relationships in the partner community, will help us to enable our industry-leading partner ecosystem to gain maximum benefit from the innovative product portfolio that we offer.”
