Pax8 accelerates expansion into Ireland with new leadership and office base

Pax8 expands Irish operations, appointing John Rawl as Regional Sales Manager and opening a new Dublin office.

Pax8, a leader in cloud commerce, has announced an expansion into the Irish market. Spearheading this move is John Rawl, who has been appointed as the Regional Sales Manager. Rawl's task lies in leading Pax8’s Irish operations, focusing on collaboration with Managed Service Providers (MSPs) to amplify partner success and enhance regional presence.

Pax8 has also inaugurated a new office in Dublin. This space is poised to strengthen local support and partner collaboration, pivotal as Pax8 grows within the Irish market.

Rawl brings an extensive background in cloud, cybersecurity, and AI-driven services. This equips him with the necessary insights to cater to the needs of MSPs from a cloud marketplace perspective.

Commenting on his new role, John Rawl emphasized his mission: "My overarching mission as Regional Sales Manager is to establish Pax8 as the go-to cloud Marketplace for Irish MSPs. Building a local team based in our new office space, earning partner trust, and delivering value through tailored solutions and strategic alignment are my top priorities."

His responsibilities encompass being the bridge between Irish MSPs and Pax8’s broader EMEA strategy, ensuring local needs are addressed. Recruiting adept talent, acquiring fresh partners, and broadening Pax8’s influence in the local MSP community are his core focuses.

Kevin O’Loughlin, CEO at Nostra, shares insight into Pax8’s impact: "What Pax8 brings to the table isn’t just technology — it’s momentum. They’ve stripped away much of the complexity around how MSPs buy, deliver and manage cloud services. That’s been a real accelerator for us at Nostra as we expand across Ireland and Europe."

With the rapid growth of the market, Pax8’s strategies position them as vital partners in providing accelerated opportunities for MSPs across Ireland.
