KnowBe4 appoints Natalie Burrows as ANZ director of sales

Natalie Burrows has been hired as ANZ director of sales as part of the company's strategy to spread its reach throughout the APAC region.

"The ever-changing cyber threat landscape in the APAC region is driving new opportunities for all different types of organisations to make strategic decisions that will have a real impact on their security awareness, behaviour and culture," international and global channel sales executive vice president Tony Jennings says.

"Nat's immense knowledge and presence in the market, combined with her leadership skills will play a major role in growing our presence in Australia and New Zealand.

Burrows will be responsible for managing and leading the Direct and Channel Sales teams for ANZ as well as strategising to ensure key objectives, results and benchmark sales goals are met throughout the year.

She will help APAC organisations improve their overall security culture and help them tackle the largest cause of security breaches: social engineering.

"I joined KnowBe4 as it is unlike any company I have ever worked for," Burrows says.

"Stu Sjouwerman and the leadership team have done an amazing job in building a company culture where our motto of 'Do it right the first time, do it fast and have fun while doing it,' resonates throughout the company.

"KnowBe4 is the market leader in cybersecurity awareness training. It has been named one of the best places to work year after year and I get the privilege of leading a group of successful individuals while growing both the Australian and New Zealand markets. What more could I ask for.
