“I’m thrilled to join the company as it continues to lead an industry that’s constantly evolving and rising to meet new challenges. I firmly believe Emarsys is strongly placed to deliver the solutions that retail, ecommerce and travel brands need to provide the seamless, personalised experiences consumers today demand.”
The company also announced that Heath Barlow, market lead and director AUNZ will relocate to London to lead Emarsys in the United Kingdom, Nordics and Benelux as Managing Director from January 2020.
“Over the past three years, Heath has made a massive contribution to not only our Australian and New Zealand business, but also to our customers and partners,” said Fullerton. “There’s no one better suited than him to lead our UK, Nordics and Benelux businesses into the future.”
