OVHcloud transforms partner team and upgrades channel scheme
The appointments of Brigid Mansfield and Filippo Sanesi come as the vendor adds training and support for channel firms
French provider OVHcloud has made changes to its Northern European partner team and introduced new resources for business allies.
Brigid Mansfield (pictured left) has been named channel scheme manager for Northern Europe, replacing David Devine, who held the role for four years and now becomes global strategy lead for OVHcloud’s channel scheme.
Mansfield entered the tech space in 2020 as a product go-to-market manager at Microsoft, becoming programme go-to-market manager two years later.
She previously held managing roles at fitness and real estate companies such as Snap Fitness 24/7, Urban Spaces, and The Gym Group.
Filippo Sanesi (pictured right) has taken on the role of global partner programme director, after previously serving as start-up manager for Northern Europe.
In that role, he oversaw the start-up programme in the UK and Nordics, and then globally across marketing and operations.
OVHcloud has also enhanced its partner offerings.
These now include a new training portal for programme members and reportedly stronger business development team support for the core partner team in Northern Europe.
OVHcloud’s channel scheme currently includes a range of financial incentives, training, MDF, co-marketing, joint business plan development and access to named and familiar support across the organisation.
The partner team is in the process of rolling out a new range of joint campaigns, which will aim to further help collaborators differentiate themselves and drive growth in areas such as AI.
“At OVHcloud, we’ve invested significantly in making our product ranges as powerful, simple and profitable for the partner community as possible,” said Mansfield.
“I'm passionate about building a more inclusive, partner-led tech ecosystem, and especially driven by the possibilities that AI and cloud innovation can unlock.”
Sanesi added: “I’m very happy to join the partner team and determined to bring the energy and enthusiasm of the start-up programme to an already-vibrant community of resellers, SIs and MSPs.”
