NinjaOne nabs Elastic VP Geoff Davies as A/NZ country manager

Automated endpoint management platform NinjaOne, has appointed former Elastic regional vice president of commercial and enterprise sales Geoff Davies to grow its business across Australia and New Zealand (A/NZ).

As vice president and A/NZ country manager at NinjaOne, Davies is expected to bring his leadership style to the software vendor, which focuses on collaboration, teamwork and “delivering meaningful value”.

He comes to the role with more than 15 years of experience in leading high-performance sales teams across the region, with more than 11 years of this time spent at ServiceNow.

Davies has also worked at Planhat, HPE, Opsware, InfoVista, Esphion, 3Com and Foundry Networks.

“Geoff is a proven sales leader with a deep understanding of the A/NZ market and a passion for making his team and customers successful,” said NinjaOne chief revenue officer John Sapone.

“As we continue to grow our presence in the region and deliver best-in-class value to IT teams and MSPs, Geoff will bring a unique perspective that will help NinjaOne, our customers, and our partners thrive.”

Davies added that he joins NinjaOne “at this pivotal moment in rapid growth” and the company’s leadership team is “relentlessly focused on continuing to identify and solve customer pain points”.

Last month, NinjaOne completed its acquisition of Melbourne-based cloud backup vendor Dropsuite for approximately US$270 million.
