NEW YORK, February 27, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
SiSense, the Big Data Analytics Company, today announced that Jordan Christopher has been named Vice President of Sales. The former MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:MSTR) executive takes over the sales reigns of the fast growing company, which registered triple growth for the third consecutive year in 2013 and opened its U.S. headquarters in New York City.
SiSense has a rapidly expanding customer base across 49 countries, including global leaders such as Target, ESPN, Merck and NASA and innovative startups including Wix. The company just announced SiSense 5, the first analytics solution enabling non-technical users to analyze terabytes of data from any mobile device.
"SiSense is poised to continue its explosive growth by unseating established BI and big data companies and encouraging mass adoption across organizations," said SiSense CEO Amit Bendov. "Jordan's team-building skills, sales leadership, and demonstrated sales track record will lead the way during this next phase of growth."
Prior to joining SiSense, Christopher served as MicroStrategy's Head of Worldwide Sales, Cloud, with global responsibility for sales and distribution of the company's cloud-based business intelligence and analytics solutions. Christopher, who brings 15 years of enterprise sales and sales management experience to SiSense has a proven track record consistently exceeding performance targets and building world-class sales teams.
"The BI market is in dire need of a solution that addresses the high cost, slow time to market and heavy reliance on IT that comes with traditional enterprise BI offerings," says Christopher. "I'm excited to join a team that is changing the world of BI by empowering business users to make intelligent data-driven decisions. SiSense, with its unique In-Chip technology, holds the answer and I am thrilled to take on the responsibility of leading and expanding the Americas sales organization."
