The company said in a press release said the appointment of an Australian channel chief came as a response to IFS’ 20 percent net revenue growth in the region.
Based in Sydney, Robinson will be responsible for “building collaborative relationships that connect partners with new opportunities” along with spearheading its channel partner program.
Prior to IFS, Robinson was COO of Precise Business Solutions, leading its Epicor ERP implementation from October 2017 to June 2019. Prior to that, he was general manager of Telstra Health from December 2013 to November 2017.

“I’m excited to be a part of a company that builds trust with partners through a collaborative spirit and an agile approach to the changing market conditions. We are providing partners with a truly unique opportunity to provide their customers with more choice in a market where other vendors focus on extracting value rather than delivering value.”
