EditShare is expanding its business with key hires in sales, sales operations and service assurance.

Newly appointed UK-based director of sales operations Simon Gatt ensures EditShare sales and channel partners have the sales enablement tools they require to deliver the experience EditShare customers have come to expect. Tasked with enriching the channel partner programme, Gatt will leverage his 20-plus years of experience to drive partner-focused activities that enhance channel partner business opportunities and customer engagements globally.

EditShare’s Global Service Assurance remit goes beyond the break/fix support model. It employs data analytics to proactively manage issues and improve the overall customer experience. Leading the team is newly appointed US-based director of global service assurance Lon Barrett, an experienced executive with a proven track record of leading high-performance technical teams around the world.

“The growing demand for more video across multiple platforms combined with the need for flexible, remote workflows, has made EditShare the go-to solutions provider for versatile collaborative media workflows,” said EditShare chief revenue officer Said Bacho. “We are investing in customer and partner-facing teams to ensure our growing customer base continues to receive expert guidance on how they can best leverage EditShare’s open solutions to scale their business and media platforms, whether it’s on-premise, in the cloud or in a hybrid configuration.”
