Tech Data’s Advanced Solutions boss Rob Tomlin is set to join Dell EMC as UK channel VP, replacing Sarah Shields who is headed off to greener pastures in a more European role.
Shields announced in June that she would become VP of enterprise channels but said she would stay on in Blighty until a suitable replacement had been found.
Tech Data has announced to staff that Rob Tomlin will be leaving to join Dell EMC as VP of channels.
“Rob has been a key player in the integration of both SDG and Avnet into the Tech Data business and we thank him for the work he has done in setting up the Advanced Solutions division. “He leaves a very strong management team behind him in which we have every confidence. The leadership of the Advanced Solutions management team will be picked up by [UK MD] David Watts and we have total belief that the division will continue to grow and build upon the value it is bringing to the channel.”
Tomlin is expected to set up in Shield’s office early in Q4.
