Hitachi Data Systems has appointed a principal consultant for its Australian and New Zealand media and entertainment business, as the company moves to take advantage of what it says are 'huge opportunities' in the ANZ regional market.


Neville Vincent, general manager, Hitachi Data Systems Australia and New Zealand, said 20-year IT industry veteran, Keith Roscarel had been appointed principal consultant for the company's media and entertainment business, and would be responsible for driving sales of Hitachi products to communications, media and entertainment (CME) customers in the region.

Roscarel, to be based in Sydney, was previously CIO of Nine Network Australia, program manager for FOXTEL and general manager of software development for CPH and PBL Media.

'The growing media and entertainment industry in Australia and New Zealand represents a huge opportunity for our business and Keith's appointment, along with the recent acquisition of BlueArc, give us a compelling offering to this sector,' Vincent said.

'Keith brings vast industry experience from his previous roles in the media and entertainment sector that we hope to leverage to strengthen Hitachi's push into this market in ANZ.'
