Infinigate Group Appoints Simon England as Chief Growth Officer
The Infinigate Group, the
value-add distributor of cybersecurity, secure networks and secure cloud, has
appointed Simon England, formerly Nuvias CEO, as its Chief Growth
Officer, joining the Infinigate Executive Management Team.
The
role is focussed on enabling and maintaining Infinigate’s above market average,
double-digit growth rate, which has been fuelling the company’s expansion for
the past fifteen years.
Simon
is ideally positioned to lead this mission, having steered Nuvias through an
upscaling phase since 2019, then supported Nuvias’ acquisition by Infinigate in
2022, and most recently, acting as an advisor to the Infinigate Group’s CEO.
Simon has extensive experience in Value Added Distribution across Europe
serving in strategic leadership positions to scale up multi-national
businesses, building and aligning leadership teams and driving growth and
financial performance for leading organisations such as Ingram Micro,
Westcon-Comstor and Tech Data-Synnex.
In
his new role, Simon will orchestrate, focus and align resources, teams and
processes across Infinigate Group territory to ensure growth, not just for the
company, but as implicit in Infinigate’s core value proposition, for its channel
and vendor partners. He will work closely with regional managers to enable the
delivery of Infinigate’s ‘Spark your Growth’ mission, taking groupwide
responsibility across Vendor Strategy and Portfolio Development, Cloud
Services, Professional Services, Marketing and Branding, Reseller Strategy and
Analytics.
“I
am excited to be part of the next development phase of this extraordinary
company after having been closely involved in the merger of the companies that
are now part of the Infinigate Group. I know the potential is there to be a
valued growth agent for our partners, applying our deep expertise across
Cybersecurity, Secure Networks and Secure Cloud, priorities for businesses of
all sizes”, Simon England comments.
Klaus
Schlichtherle, CEO of the Infinigate Group says: “Growth is at the essence of
our strategy. It is our ultimate objective, our promise to everyone who works
with us. Our vendors, partners and investors. Growth has been our constant
trend, surpassing industry averages, with 25% average growth and we plan to
sustain that trend. That is why I am delighted to entrust this very core part
of the Infinigate strategy to Simon, who has an excellent track record of
driving impact and delivering results and the experience and capability to lead
us into the next phase of expansion”.
