PagerDuty announced the launch of its local team in Sydney, Australia.

The global expansion will help the company further grow its presence in the Asia-Pacific region and address the increasing need for PagerDuty digital operations management.

The company also announced the appointment of David Wall, former head of APAC sales at Dropbox, who brings more than 10 years of executive leadership and software industry experience growing businesses in the region; he will lead PagerDuty’s expansion in Australia and Asia Pacific by continuing to build an ecosystem of customers and partners.

“Leading companies across industries, of all sizes are more dependent on digital for revenues and customer engagement than ever. PagerDuty is experiencing strong growth by addressing real-time digital digital operations challenges, ” said Jennifer Tejada, CEO, PagerDuty. “Our expansion in Asia-Pacific highlights our efforts to provide developer and IT operations teams, as well as the broader business, with better visibility and insights to effectively prevent and manage incidents, ultimately delivering a great customer experience.”

David Wall said: “There is a critical need in APAC for PagerDuty’s customer-centric approach to digital operations management. The company stood out to me as the best equipped to handle the rapid expansion of digital services and their operational needs. I look forward to helping shape the future direction of PagerDuty through key channels and alliances in this region while empowering customers to become more successful.”

In his new role at PagerDuty, Wall will apply his deep knowledge of developing successful growth strategies to build on PagerDuty’s position as the leading digital operations management platform. Prior to PagerDuty, Wall was a key member of Dropbox’s leadership team, responsible for developing, executing and driving growth through direct and channel sales within the APAC market by helping companies simplify the way people and teams work together.

“With over 400 customers in Asia Pacific already, PagerDuty has a strong foundation to build on,” said Tejada. “David’s track record in establishing successful partner, channel and alliance outcomes and achieving high-growth regional sales success across large geographic regions will play a crucial role in helping us to understand and delight our customers, scale our global business, and continue our strong business growth.”
