Content+Cloud appoints former Softcat MD as non-executive director

Colin Brown will advise on Content+Cloud's growth roadmap

Content+Cloud has appointed former Softcat MD Colin Brown to its board as a non-executive director.

The UK-based MSP says Brown will advise on the business' growth roadmap and bring "more than two decades of senior leadership experience and expertise".

Prior to joining Content+Cloud's board of directors, Brown spent eight years at Softcat and was part of the leadership team that brought the organisation to its IPO.

After stepping down as MD in 2020, Brown assisted with the reseller's transition to a new leadership team.

He now acts as a non-executive director for a number of other technology and services companies.

Content+Cloud CEO Peter Sweetbaum welcomed Brown to the company.

"We are delighted to have Colin on board where we look forward to him bringing his exemplary experience at the core of the UK IT Services market in the UK and Europe," he said.

"Colin's experience of leadership positions, at arguably the most successful technology businesses today, will be a fantastic addition to Content+Cloud's ambitious growth plans. On behalf of the Content+Cloud and Advania teams, we would like to welcome Colin to our exciting journey."

In a statement, Brown said he was "delighted" to join Content+Cloud.

"I have been so impressed with the fantastic growth that Peter and his leadership team have achieved over the last few years, and what's even more exciting is the best is yet to come."

He added: "Content+Cloud is ideally placed to assist organisations, seeking to harness and benefit from technology, through a combination of their best-in-class customer service and a very smart investment record. I'm thrilled to be a part of it."
