Pivotal has announced the appointment of Gavin Jones as their first managing director for their ANZ region.
The software group said Jones would be responsible for executing the strategy, vision and growth objectives for Pivotal. He will also support the company's expanding customer and partner network.
Jones spent less than a year in the top local job at Good Technology, following more than six years at Salesforce.
Pivotal APJ general manager Melissa Ries said: "The ANZ region has some of the more forward-looking companies across our portfolio. We have seen significant interest for Pivotal’s technology and services across the board and is a fast growing market for us. Gavin’s appointment will help us steadily grow and give our customers greater access, attention and insights to support their local business needs."
The appointment of Jones to the newly created role follows Pivotal's first Asia Pacific Pivotal summit held last year, which attracted 500 customers and partners from across the region.
Prior to joining Pivotal, Jones was VP and general manager for Good Technology.
He told CRN that he was attracted to the leadership as well as Pivotal's "incredible vision"
"It reminded of the Salesforce vision in the early days."
