Dom Poloniecki takes on role as storage vendor's new general manager of Western Europe

Nutanix has named Dom Poloniecki as its general manager for its Western Europe and Sub-Saharan Africa region.

Poloniecki joins the storage vendor after a 17-year career at IBM, which he joined as director of enterprise and channel for its software group, before eventually being appointed VP of cloud software for the UK and Ireland.

Prior to IBM, Poloniecki worked as an analyst at Morgan Stanley.

He will be responsible for all sales and customer delivery activities in the UK and Ireland, as well as South Africa and emerging markets in central and southern Africa.

"I'm absolutely delighted to have Dom join our leadership team in EMEA," stated Sammy Zoghlami, Senior VP of Sales for the Europe, Middle East & Africa region.

"His extensive experience in cloud services and enterprise sales not only fits the Nutanix market position perfectly, but also our future ambitions.

"Most importantly, Dom is recognised as a leader with a strong reputation for developing the people working for him."
