Former SAP COO becomes Presence of IT 'co-CEO'
Shane Grobler

Australian HR technology specialist Presence of IT has appointed Shane Grobler as a second executive officer to lead alongside existing CEO David Brookes.

"Shane's background has been in sales and business operations, while mine has been in service delivery and support. Our customers and staff expect us to be more hands on and by dividing the function we can have a lot more focus and get a lot more done," said Brookes.

The Sydney-headquartered reseller announced that Grobler would look after "sales, marketing, business development, and business operations" while Brookes would concentrate on "services delivery and support".

Grobler has shifted internally from his previous role as director of business transformation and strategy. Before joining Presence of IT in 2013, he was chief operating officer at SAP ANZ.

"My priorities as a co-CEO will be to make sure we continue the momentum and remain relevant to our customers," said Grobler. "We can do this by adopting a holistic approach to meet our customers' need, by leveraging every piece of our business technology offerings, whether SAP, Oracle or Kronos."

Presence of IT is an HR ERP specialist, with offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane, Singapore, USA and Canada. The reseller made headlines last month for winning the 'cloud HR solutions reseller' trophy at SAP's annual partner excellence awards for Asia-Pacific Japan.
