ServiceNow powers up EMEA leadership team with three appointments

The vendor has made promotions for the roles of chairman, international; president of EMEA; and VP of EMEA South

Digital workflow group ServiceNow has made a flurry of senior-level EMEA appointments as it continues to commit investment to innovation, and ambitious growth in the region.

EMEA president since 2022, Ulrik Nehammer has been promoted to the job of chairman, international. In this strategic advisory role, Nehammer will bring his expertise to global customer accounts and strategic planning.

Meanwhile, current VP for the southern EMEA, Cathy Mauzaize moves up to take over Nehammer's previous role as president of EMEA. She will drive the growth strategy in the region to support ServiceNow in becoming the "defining enterprise software company of the 21st century."

Mauzaize joined ServiceNow in 2021 as vVP of EMEA South, bringing her 30-plus years of technology experience to key customer accounts in the region, such as Carrefour, Lavazza and Sasol, and has been a champion for gender equality and diversity initiatives.

She previously held senior leadership roles across companies including Microsoft, SAP, Dell, PwC, and Hewlett Packard.

"Since joining ServiceNow, I have seen first-hand the power of our platform to drive digital and business transformation for our customers," Mauzaize said.

"Combined with our industry-leading teams, the opportunity in EMEA is immense.

"The needs and considerations of our customers, teams, and partners are truly unique. I'm honoured to build on the strong foundation that's in place to accelerate this diverse region's trajectory."

Last but not least, Fabio Spoletini has joined ServiceNow to take the reins from Mauzaize as the new VP of EMEA South, leading business development across Southern Europe, Middle East and Africa.

Spoletini brings more than 25 years' experience in enterprise software and digital transformation to ServiceNow—most recently from Oracle.

"I've watched ServiceNow from afar for several years and have admired the vision of the company in making the world work better," Spoletini said.

"Faced with a broad range of customer, macro-economic, and technology challenges, businesses are looking to ServiceNow as the solution to accelerate their digitalisation. I'm excited help our customers reach their potential with ServiceNow."
