Geoff Thomas brings decades of experience in building high-performance teams across Asia Pacific and helping customers achieve breakthrough business outcomes. Prior to joining Infor, he spent six years growing Qlik’s business in the APJ region. He has also held senior leadership roles at Microsoft, Juniper Networks, Polycom, and OneLogin, strengthening his credentials in enterprise software growth, regional leadership, and customer-centric innovation.

Thomas has moved quickly to strengthen his regional leadership bench and has already made two key appointments. He named Sydney-based Aidan Brecknell as Vice President and Managing Director (ANZ) to lead Infor’s growth agenda across Australia and New Zealand. Additionally, Victor Ng has taken on an expanded scope as Vice President and Managing Director for SENA, covering ASEAN, Greater China, and Korea, and will be based in Singapore.

Speaking on the opportunity, Geoff Thomas said, “Infor’s dynamic and fast-growing customers rely on our solutions to make their business more resilient, efficient and innovative,” adding, “I am passionate about the APJ market as it represents a huge opportunity to help organisations in the region achieve their strategic goals and unlock real business value through industry-specific innovation. I am confident we have the right team and resources in place to help our customers succeed.”

Highlighting the strategic importance of the region, Wolfgang Kobek, Executive Vice President and General Manager, International Business, Infor, said, “The APJ market is instrumental to Infor’s overall strategy and home to many dynamic businesses driving technological innovation and growth. We are dedicated to investing in our customers for long-term growth and will continue to invest in top talents, ecosystem and innovative cloud solutions that empower our customers to accelerate digital transformation and achieve long-term success in this fast-evolving region,” and added, “Geoff is an exceptional leader with deep experience in the APJ market, and the ideal person to help our customers in the region thrive. His customer-first approach, coupled with his extensive grasp of the APJ business and ecosystem, will help Infor deliver superior value to organisations quickly, and improve customer outcomes.”

Infor serves customers in 200 countries, including 10 of the top 10 food & beverage manufacturers, 8 of the top 10 automotive manufacturers, 11 of the top 15 industrial manufacturers, and 15 of the top 23 supply chain leaders. APJ customers include Sealord, Riverina Water, NCC Limited, My Food Bag, CJD Equipment, Vallen Asia, and Spykar Lifestyles, among others.
