IBM appoints Nathan Cullen as new country general manager
IBM today announced that Nathan Cullen has been appointed country general manager and technology leader, IBM Ireland. He succeeds Deborah Threadgold, who has been promoted to a new role as vice president of cross-brand technology sales, IBM UK & Ireland.
Cullen recently served as ecosystem leader for IBM Ireland, where he was responsible for growing technology sales revenue through channel partnerships. He has also held leadership positions in Ireland and worldwide within software development and offering management during his 16-year career at IBM.
“Nathan’s expertise in driving strong ecosystem-led growth in Ireland will be a huge asset in his new role as country general manager.
