Sepura has announced that Guy-Franck Nakach has joined as senior vice president – sales and marketing.

During his career, Guy-Franck has developed a wealth of experience from management positions in global technology businesses within the US and mainland Europe, including Psion, Teklogix, Mors-Techniphone, Computer Associates and CN Industries. As well as his considerable commercial and systems expertise, he played a significant role in transitioning Psion’s global business route-to-market, from a direct to a channel centric activity.

These skills will enable him to play a vital role in the transformation of Sepura, and offer a real synergy with Sepura’s international channel partner strategy.

Guy-Franck commented: “It is a fantastic time for me to join Sepura. With both the acquisition of 3T and some key product launches, including the STP8x and STP9000, we are developing a comprehensive strategy and product portfolio to fulfil our ambition of becoming a high growth, global force in critical communications.”

Gordon Watling, chief executive officer of Sepura, added: “Guy-Franck brings a great depth of knowledge which will be invaluable for our future development. We are very excited to have him as part of our team."
