Data#3's Bruce Crouch departs after 20 years

Data#3 veteran Bruce Crouch is leaving the IT solutions giant after nearly 20 years, most recently as general manager of application solutions.

Crouch will depart in early 2016, with the application solutions team reporting to executive general manager Michael Bowser.

Crouch joined Data#3 in 1996 as business development manager, a role he held for six years. He has also held general manager roles for various Data#3 business divisions, including enterprise infrastructure solutions, integrated solutions, infrastructure solutions, and most recently, applications solutions.

Prior to joining Data#3, Crouch worked as a systems engineer for IBM Australia from 1988 to 1992. Crouch is yet to announce his next role.

More recently, Crouch led Data#3’s coalition with mobile app developer BlinkMobile to develop, deploy and support software for remote field workers for an undisclosed government department.

“It has been a privilege to have contributed to Data#3’s success,” said Crouch. “I am grateful for the opportunities and support provided during my time at Data#3.”

Data#3 chief executive Laurence Baynham thanked Crouch for his long service. “It has been a pleasure to work with Bruce over the past 20 years, and I wish him well in his future endeavours. On behalf of everyone at Data#3, I would like to personally thank Bruce for his significant contribution to the business.”
