• Director of Professional Services APAC

  • Oct 2006 - Nov 2008

  As Director of PS I was tasked with forming a local team and system of delivery partners that could deliver existing sales as well as being involved with the anticipated growth of the region. With limited resources I managed to deliver a number of very large projects. Significant interest in the Dexterra product by such houses as Fujitsu, Telstra, Mincom and UXC opened the door to a different approach and Dexterra Australia moved to a distribution model and the professional services team were transferred to a number of companies to provide in-house expertise and capability. My role changed to being one of an account manager for delivery and developing the product roadmap with large clients. The distribution model worked too well and Dexterra Australia was eventually phased out and under financial difficulty the parent company was bought by Antenna Software. The re-branded Dexterra products are still in service by the companies that I delivered to under the Dexterra banner. Show less
