MTI waves off channel boss Roberts

Chris Roberts joined a year ago to lead channel programme launch

MTI's head of channel, Chris Roberts, who was responsible for growing the VAR's own channel programme, has left the firm.

Roberts joined the Surrey reseller in summer 2013 to spearhead the company's push to create its own channel programme, which was unveiled last Christmas and launched earlier this year.

As of the start of this month, Roberts is sales director for cloud vendor NetPlan.

In June, Roberts talked up the success of MTI's channel programme and said he expects the lion's share of its future managed services growth to come from fellow resellers.

MTI said it was company policy not to comment on staff movements.
