Testing platform provider Basis Technologies has opened a new office in Sydney, following on from recent openings in Dallas, Texas, and Berlin, Germany.
It is a return to Australian shores for the company, which was first established in Melbourne, before moving its headquarters to London.
The Sydney office will support operations in Australia, New Zealand, China, Singapore, India and Japan, bringing development, sales, service and delivery to the region, assisting in the expansion of strategic partnerships.
“We are excited to return to Australia, where it all began for us over 20 years ago,” said Basis Technologies’ executive vice president of global field operations, Matt Thomas. “With a thriving customer base and growing demand for a new automated approach to SAP DevOps and testing in the APJ region, it was clearly the next step in our expansion. I am proud to say our global footprint now includes offices in North America, Europe, the United Kingdom and Asia Pacific.”
Alex Stoney has been named managing director APJ to lead growth in the region. He previously worked with Insight Enterprises and Tricentis, where he led enterprise customer sales in APAC.
“As a top contributor to Tricentis’ growth in this region, where he honed his skills in building relationships through direct and indirect channels, Alex is the perfect fit to help support and scale our customer base and further develop our strategic alliances,” said Thomas.
Basis is also recruiting a regional team, including pre-sales technical experts, solution developers, support specialists and implementation experts.
The company has existing alliances in APJ, including a significant partnership with leading SAP services provider UXC Oxygen, a subsidiary of DXC Technology.
