Head of Business Partner Channels for the Technology Support Services organization within the IBM Europe region. The focus of my work was to expand a solid network of committed Business Partners through specific Business Development Plans and Business Partner’s and IBMs investment with a team of specialized sales people in the countries.

Grow the maintenance business of IBM IOT Northeast together with IBM Business Partners and ibm.com Telesales. Focus on sales, education, offering enablement, processes and systems to put the maintenance business on a solid path for growth.

I drove business growth through offering development and orchestrating “Team IBM” and Business Partners to jointly grow the market share for IBM Internet Security Systems. As of January 2010 ISS was integrated into IBM’s Software group.

IBM GTS Channels (IBM Business Partners and ibm.com Telesales) were underrepresented in the marketing mix of IBM GTS in CEMAAS. I took over the responsibility to significantly improve the current situation and the channels business has grown at a significant faster pace than the face to face sales channel. With a team of 26 specialists across the region we grew revenue more than threefold during that period.

ibm.com IGS Telesales is handling annually 15’000 + transactions on behalf of IBM Global Services (IGS) with 100+ people mainly out of the IBM Digital Sales center in Dublin. I was responsible for the whole business including Digital Strategy, planning and interlocks with the lines of business and ibm.com, driving significant more transactions towards this lower cost sales channel. I worked closely with senior lines of business leaders at EMEA and IBM WW level.
