IT People - People

Business performance management specialist Tagetik has made two key appointments for its new Australian operation.

Italy-based performance management software specialist Tagetik is setting up shop in Australia. The local operation is headed by country manager Geoff Noble.

"Australia is a very mature market for corporate performance management software with highly sophisticated needs," said Mr Noble. "Customers are ready for a new generation product and we chose Tagetik for its exciting vision, strong unified product and a reputation for high customer satisfaction. We will be bringing Tagetik to Australian customers directly and through partnerships with leading consulting companies and 'boutique' performance management specialists."

Mr Noble is joined by consulting manager Brendan Aspery.

"Geoff and I have worked together with large organisations including Lion Nathan, Macquarie Bank, Boral, Nufarm, Sony, and Mirvac," said Mr Aspery, "Our goal has always been to simplify the complex in budgeting and financial consolidation processes and the Tagetik software embodies that perfectly. The built-in functionality in a single product will help us and our partners bring a whole new level of capability, reliability and governance to Australian customers."
