Wasabi Technologies has appointed Jon Howes as senior vice president of global sales. After serving as Wasabi’s vice president and general manager for EMEA since January 2023, Jon will now lead the company’s global sales program.
Under Howes’ leadership, Wasabi achieved a significant footprint across EMEA, driving approximately 77% year over year growth in annual recurring revenue. He also played a pivotal role in building key partnerships for Wasabi with some of EMEA’s largest companies including Retelit, Bechtle, Exclusive Networks, TD Synnex, and more. Beyond EMEA, Wasabi has seen tremendous growth, including over 90,000 customers, 15,000 partners, operations in over 100 countries, 400 employees, and establishing 14 storage regions, with additional expansions on the horizon.
“I am eager to continue building upon Wasabi’s momentum on a global scale,” said Howes. “The remarkable progress Wasabi has made since I joined is a testament to how much customers and partners value Wasabi’s offerings. I look forward to collaborating with the sales organization worldwide to drive further growth and identify new opportunities.”
Prior to joining Wasabi, Howes held senior sales and channel positions in EMEA for Juniper Networks, Infovista, and Oracle. In this new role, he will lead global sales operations, directing a high-performance team to scale Wasabi’s presence and market leadership. Howes will be succeeded by Kevin Dunn, who has served as Wasabi’s country manager for the UK, Ireland, Nordics & South Africa since May 2022.
“Jon has built a very successful organization in EMEA, and we see the value in his exceptional leadership skills and his understanding of Wasabi's business as instrumental for our global sales initiatives,” said Marty Falaro, EVP and COO of Wasabi. “I’m confident Jon will continue to elevate our global presence and look forward to seeing Wasabi grow under his leadership to solidify our position as the leader in cloud storage.
