OVHcloud strengthens partner program with appointments and new initiatives

OVHcloud announces leadership changes and new offerings to boost its partner program, enhancing support and collaboration with partners.

OVHcloud, a renowned global cloud provider, has recently announced significant changes to its partner team, underscoring its commitment to fostering robust partnerships. Brigid Mansfield steps into the role of Partner Program Manager for Northern Europe, succeeding David Devine who transitions to Global Strategy Lead.

Filippo Sanesi, previously the Startup Manager for Northern Europe, has been appointed the Global Partner Program Director. His prior experience includes leading initiatives in the UK & Nordics, followed by directing global marketing and operations for the Startup Program—a testament to his capacity for scaling impactful projects.

Sanesi expresses enthusiasm, "I’m very happy to join the partner team and determined to bring the energy and enthusiasm of the startup program to an already-vibrant community of resellers, SIs and MSPs.”

Mansfield, who joins from Microsoft, brings valuable experience leading go-to-market strategies for innovative products and emphasizes the growing importance of digital sovereignty alongside sustainable cloud solutions.

As part of its ongoing commitment, OVHcloud is enhancing partner offerings with a new training portal and additional support from the Northern Europe business development team. The company's esteemed recognition as the 2025 Global Service Provider Partner of the Year by Nutanix at the .NEXT event further cements its industry stature.

OVHcloud's comprehensive partner program offers resources tailored for partners of various sizes, incorporating financial incentives, training, and co-marketing opportunities. The introduction of joint campaigns aims at fostering differentiation and catalysing growth, particularly in emerging fields such as AI.

Mansfield concludes, "I’m passionate about building a more inclusive, partner-led tech ecosystem, and especially driven by the possibilities that AI and cloud innovation can unlock. It's great to be part of a team that champions both.”
