“I am confident that Marketo’s business in Australia and New Zealand will truly thrive with Will at the helm. His experience leading successful enterprise teams, knowledge of the local landscape and understanding of the challenges facing today’s chief marketing officers make him an ideal addition to our team,” said Johnson.

“I am thrilled to join the Marketo ANZ team and help CMOs drive revenue and growth in the Engagement Economy,” said Griffith. “Marketo has long been known for its championing of the marketing profession and customer-focused engagement solutions. I’m excited to be a part of the next phase of the Marketo journey.”
