Rob Darby previously worked for Ingram Micro and Comms-Care

IT security distributor Distology has added to its senior team with the appointment of Rob Darby as sales director.

Darby brings 20 years of experience to the role and has worked across the tech sector - including for Pulsant, Ingram Micro and Comms-Care.

Distology says he will be responsible for maintaining relationships with existing partners and vendors and helping the business expand its team as it continues to scale.

"Channel is my passion and has been the key focus of my career to date, so I'm really excited to be joining the team at Distology," Darby said.

"As part of my role here, I'll be working closely with specialist teams to progress our partner recruitment strategy, while also developing the way partners take our technology to market to solve the ever changing and complex cybersecurity needs of their customers.

"It's a really exciting time to have joined the business and I'm thrilled to be working alongside a strong team to build on the solid foundations which are already in place."

The distributor claims to have increased its revenues by more than 75 per cent over the past three years and also gained private equity investment from NorthEdge Capital last year.

Hayley Roberts, CEO of Distology, said: "We're thrilled to have Rob on board.

"Rob has a proven track record in sales and helping businesses to grow, so his skills will not only bolster our already talented and innovative team but will also help us achieve our ambitious growth plans."
