HubSpot promotes Megan Hughes to JAPAC MD

HubSpot has appointed Megan Hughes as MD and VP for sales for the Japan, Asia Pacific, and India (JAPAC) region.

Hughes steps into this expanded role from her previous position as ANZ country lead and senior director of sales at the company.

In her new role, the Sydney-based Hughes will oversee HubSpot's business growth, sales strategy, and operations across JAPAC, including key markets like Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and India. 

“Over the past four years, Megan has transformed our ANZ business, building a customer-first culture where teams deliver real impact," said David Cohen, chief sales officer at HubSpot. 

"Her proven track record and commitment to our cultural values make her the ideal leader to drive our growth plans across the entire JAPAC region. Megan will play a pivotal role for our 28,000 customers in JAPAC to grow better by transforming how front-office teams market, sell, and support through HubSpot’s AI-powered customer platform."

“Over the past four years growing HubSpot’s presence across ANZ, I’ve been continually inspired by the talent, collaboration, and customer focus across our region," said Hughes.

"As we look ahead, my priority is to keep strengthening the foundations that drive our success: putting our customers first, leading by example, and always learning. JAPAC is at such an exciting inflection point, and I’m honoured to lead this next chapter of growth as we help more scaling companies across Japan, Asia Pacific, and India achieve their ambitions.”
