A global leader in automating, digitizing and transforming the way people bank and shop, Diebold Nixdorf, has appointed Mr Angus Gibb as its Senior Regional Manager for sub-Saharan Africa.
The South African-based appointee will be responsible for accelerating the group’s growth strategy in this region for banking solutions.
Prior to joining Diebold Nixdorf, Mr Gibb was the Market Engagement Director for a tech startup, delivering a cloud-native, platform engineering solution to enterprises looking to modernize their technology investments, without needing to invest in the huge pool of skillsets required to achieve this successfully.
He previously held senior strategic consulting and director positions, assisting large financial institutions to successfully distribute insurance and other financial products to mass-markets, via various direct marketing channels.
With close to 25 years of experience in various senior sales and marketing roles in the financial services sector, his expertise extends to the associated technologies driving financial inclusion, particularly in the African context.
This experience gives him a thorough understanding of the key value drivers for Financial Institutions, new trends and needs in terms of payment, branch and cash transformation, digitization, artificial intelligence, migration to cloud-based technologies and how Diebold Nixdorf’s solutions act as an enabler in this complex ecosystem.
