Microsoft solutions provider Rapid Circle, headquartered in the Netherlands, has appointed two senior executives to its Australian leadership team following 50 per cent year-on-year growth in managed services.
The company has named Brian Williams as chief information security officer and Frederique Dennison as alliances director to support its continued expansion.
"Rapid Circle has climbed to new heights by investing in seasoned experts who allow us to be large enough to deliver but small enough to care," Cassandra Ashworth, chief executive of ANZ at Rapid Circle said.
Williams joins from a cybersecurity background spanning roles at Telstra, Optus, NEC, NTT and Wipro Shelde.
Dennison brings vendor management expertise from previous positions at Avanade, Microsoft and NTT, and will oversee relationships with Microsoft and Dicker Data.
The appointments follow a successful fiscal 2024 that saw Rapid Circle complete its vNEXT acquisition and sign more than 10 new enterprise contracts.
The company expanded existing customer agreements by 27 per cent, securing deals with Toyota, Hunter Water, Judo Bank and the University of Sunshine Coast.
Rapid Circle expects 30 per cent year-on-year growth in fiscal 2025 as demand continues for intelligent workplace, generative AI, cloud migration and security solutions.
The new executives join existing leadership including Rodney Hobbs as chief technology officer and Daniel Baird as head of delivery.
