“With Spencer on board, we now have the right EMEA leadership profile in place to reflect the urgency of our business,” said Mooney. “Spencer is laser-focused on execution and ensuring a rigourous, granular and disciplined sales process that will help us take advantage of the large opportunity that the region represents. Based on my past working relationship with Spencer, I am confident that we are well positioned to execute toward increasing growth in the business, particularly given the recently adopted General Data Protection Regulation, which will go into effect in the European Union in 2018.”
