Prior to IBM, Peel was CMO of the integration provider Cast Iron Systems, growing the company''s sales and customer base over 500 percent leading to its acquisition by IBM, where he stayed on to build the company''s success globally.
"Jitterbit''s tremendous growth potential above and beyond the impressive pace the company has already set is what caught my attention, and I believe my repeated success driving growth at similar-stage companies will translate into powerful results here," Peel said. "Cloud-first is the mantra for all new applications, and now is the time to really turn up the volume on born-on-the-cloud integration."
By joining Jitterbit, Peel has the chance to repeat his success with many former coworkers from Cast Iron Systems, and will use that foundation to hit the ground running. He will report directly to Jitterbit''s CEO in his new role.
