iManage eyes 'important' ANZ market with new hire

iManage has revealed Gianni Giust as the new iManage Managing Director for Australia and New Zealand.

In his new position, based in Brisbane, Australia, Giust will work closely with the existing iManage partner community that supports a well-established and rapidly growing regional customer base.

"The Australian and New Zealand market has always been an important market for us -- we count the largest law firms and financial institutions in the region as customers, and we have a strong partner community that has served us and our customers well," says Neil Araujo, iManage CEO.

"Having local representation with Giust further solidifies our commitment to this market, provides increased support for our partners, and ensures we have a compelling local presence for our customers," he adds.

"Gianni has the industry experience and customer orientation needed to ensure that our customers in the region receive the most value from their iManage investments."

Giust has spent a number of years working for a key iManage partner organisation in Australia, focused on growing the adoption of the iManage solutions across the professional services market in New South Wales.

The new Managing Director also brings broad experience in the enterprise content management space, including time as Associate Director - Enterprise Content Management at Optus, and National Manager of Customer Success at Objective Corporation.

"This is an exciting time of change in the professional services industry as our customers strive to leverage modern and smart technologies to manage information in order to improve business agility, lower costs and improve information security," says Giust.

"There's so much excitement in the marketplace around the strides iManage has made as an organisation since becoming an independent business, and the innovation it has demonstrated with game-changing new products like iManage Work 10."
