SANTA
CLARA, Calif., July 23,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Clumio, a leader in data backup
and recovery for critical cloud data, is thrilled to announce the
appointment of Jillian Souza as
Chief People Officer and Carol Hague
as Vice President of Marketing, strengthening its executive team
with their combined expertise.
Jillian Souza joins Clumio from
BigPanda, where she held multiple roles on the People and executive
leadership team. With extensive experience in scaling organizations
through acquisitions, IPOs, and other growth stages, Jillian's
proficiency in enhancing the employee experience and driving
organizational effectiveness will be pivotal. Her previous roles at
Blend and Pandora underscore her ability to manage hyper-growth
environments and build robust HR strategies.
"I had the privilege of working with Jill for two years at
BigPanda. While many companies and leaders claim their people
matter, they often fail to invest in their development after
hiring. Jill is different. She's not just a people leader; she's a
vital member of the executive team," said Rick Underwood, CEO of Clumio. "With her unique
ability to both partner with and guide the executive team on talent
decisions, Jill also serves as a trusted advisor to everyone in the
company. I am excited about Jill's leadership as we strive to make
Clumio the world leader in Data Protection and Data Management for
the Public Cloud."
Carol Hague, the new Vice
President of Marketing, brings over 20 years of marketing
experience from leading IT and SaaS cloud companies, including
Salesloft, Talend, and VMware. At VMware, she led the global
campaigns organization, and her tenure at Box saw her contribute
significantly to its transition from a pre-IPO company to a public
entity. Carol's passion for creating data-driven marketing
strategies will drive Clumio's go-to-market strategy and long-term
growth.
"Carol understands what is required in the new world of B2B. Her
innovative approach to demand generation, digital strategy, brand
management, and customer engagement will allow the amazing things
we are doing at Clumio to reach the rest of the world," said
Rick Underwood, CEO of Clumio.
"Carol's exceptional ability to build and inspire high-performing
teams has been instrumental in driving marketing efforts at some of
the most successful cloud companies. I'm excited to unlock the next
phase of Clumio's growth with her at the helm of our marketing
engine."
These appointments come at a time of significant momentum for
Clumio. The company announced a $75M
Series D funding round earlier this year led by Sutter Hill
Ventures, with participation from Index Ventures, Altimeter
Capital, and NewView Capital. The recent funding has accelerated
innovation and market expansion for Clumio's public cloud backup
and recovery solutions. Clumio has experienced a 4X year-over-year
growth in annual recurring revenue (ARR), driven by enterprise
customer acquisition, including notable companies such as
Atlassian, LexisNexis, and Cava.
