Class adds three
Cloud-based technology company Class has made three new appointments to the senior executive team to support chief executive Andrew Russell drive their ‘reimagination’ strategy.
Jason Wilson, previously the general manager, digital at the Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA), had been appointed chief product and marketing officer.
Dan Coutts, former chief technology officer (CTO) with Visual Risk in Sydney, had been appointed CTO.
Coutts had experience in business application development, infrastructure, cloud delivery and digital transformation.
James Delmar, previously with Salesforce and with over 16 years’ experience in information technology and telecommunications, had been appointed chief sales officer.
Russell said these appointments were an important milestone in implementing their ‘reimagination’ strategy, using new cloud-based technologies to enable people in the industry to better automate and reduce back-office costs.
“As recently reported in the 2019 Investment Trends Report, Class continues to dominate the self-managed super funds (SMSF) software space,” Russell said.
“However, we believe that there is still so much more that can be done to assist accountants, administrations and financial planners simplify their business and gain much greater efficiencies.”
“With the addition of these external top talent placements, I’m delighted to be leading such an experienced, energised and dynamic leadership team committed to our reimagination strategy.”
