Widely respected as a trusted advisor to leaders executing complex digital transformation at organisations of all sizes, Subramanian will work alongside CEO Mathew Elenjickal to drive the company&#8217;s strategy, growth and customer success globally.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs our new President, Rocky will be key to taking FourKites to the next level,\u201d said Elenjickal. \u201cHe has a proven track record in delivering big wins for customers, building world-class teams, championing workplace diversity and culture, scaling processes and growing thriving partner ecosystems. Just as important, he passionately shares my belief that better supply chains make the world a better place. I\u2019m honoured to welcome him to our executive team as we accelerate FourKites\u2019 growth trajectory.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.retailtechnologyreview.com\/assets\/image-cache\/files\/images\/12_04_23\/rocky-subramanian-headshot.7fa9aa46.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"650\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Subramanian was most recently Executive Vice President and CRO at Ceridian (NYSE:CDAY), where he helped the company grow to over $1.2B in revenue, added some of the biggest global brands as customers, and transformed the revenue organisation. He previously served as Senior Vice President and Managing Director of one of SAP\u2019s (NYSE:SAP) largest market units \u2014 with responsibilities spanning sales, go-to-market strategy, operations and services for the entire enterprise software portfolio \u2014 which he grew to over $1.8B. Prior to SAP, Subramanian served in various roles at Oracle\/PeopleSoft (NYSE:ORCL), Renaissance and NCS Pearson. He also advises as a volunteer mentor, and supports organisations with missions focused on education accessibility and eradicating hunger.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom the beginning, I have been inspired by FourKites\u2019 vision. It goes far beyond visibility; FourKites is helping companies lower costs, improve customer satisfaction, enhance workplace productivity and achieve their sustainability goals. It\u2019s helping get food, medication and critical supplies to people who need them \u2014 faster and more reliably than ever before,\u201d said Subramanian. \u201cPaired with the company\u2019s world-class products, pace of innovation, rapid deployment, thriving partner ecosystem and the scale at which we can help our customers, the potential for FourKites\u2019 global impact is limitless. I\u2019m excited and proud to join Matt and the entire FourKites team on this mission.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Subramanian\u2019s appointment comes on the heels of significant momentum for FourKites. In 2022, the company realised 70% growth in new customers, with more than 1,200 of the world\u2019s most recognised brands \u2014 including 50% of the Fortune 500 \u2014 now using FourKites to track more than 3 million shipments around the world every day. In addition to strategic investments in 2021 from industry heavyweights Qualcomm Ventures, LLC, Volvo Group Venture Capital AB and Zebra Technologies, over the past year, FourKites inked strategic partnerships with a number of industry titans to continue executing on its bold vision to provide visibility everywhere.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>These companies include Mitsui &amp; Co., Ltd., Quiet Platforms, Sony, Microsoft and Narvar. The real-time supply chain visibility pioneer was also recognised for its industry leadership and ongoing innovation by Gartner, SupplyChainBrain, Blue Yonder, Builtin Chicago, Manhattan Associates and Food Shippers of America.<\/p>\n<p>FourKites continues to attract top talent to its senior leadership team as it scales its global operations and reinforces its focus on customer success. In addition to Subramanian, the company recently announced the appointment of Rebecca Nerad as Vice President of Global Customer Success, and Natalie Wolf, Vice President of Customer Operations and Strategy. Nerad has over 20 years in the supply chain industry, having held senior customer success roles at e2open, i2 Technologies, JDA Software and Bristlecone, while Wolf has held senior customer experience roles at Anaplan and Celonis.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/dmsretail.com\/online-workshops-list\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-496\" src=\"https:\/\/dmsretail.com\/RetailNews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/RETAIL-ONLINE-TRAINING-728-X-90.png\" alt=\"Retail Online Training\" width=\"729\" height=\"91\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dmsretail.com\/RetailNews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/RETAIL-ONLINE-TRAINING-728-X-90.png 729w, https:\/\/dmsretail.com\/RetailNews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/RETAIL-ONLINE-TRAINING-728-X-90-300x37.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 729px) 100vw, 729px\" \/><\/a><\/p><br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article is brought to you by Retail Technology Review: FourKites appoints new President to accelerate global expansion.
