Industry veteran will spearhead global expansion
London, 27th April 2016 - Global mobile Point of Sale (mPOS) leader Miura Systems announce the appointment of Simon Stokes in the key role of Chief Commercial Officer.
Simon will be tasked with masterminding Miura’s continued global expansion and client development, which has already seen the firm ranked an impressive third in the inaugural Sunday Times BT Business SME Export Track 100 last year.
He brings with him a wealth of experience spanning nearly 30 years in the technology and payments industries and will be a valuable addition to the growing Miura team. Prior to joining Miura, Simon spent 10 years at Visa Inc. company CyberSource, where he held the roles of SVP Global Market and Client Development and UK Managing Director. In his decade at the online payments firm, Simon successfully helped build sales and business operations in Europe, Asia and CEMEA regions – experience which will serve him well at Miura. Previously, he spent 17 highly successful years with Dell in Europe, where he gained experience running various sales and marketing teams across different sectors, as well as managing accounts at a national and global level for the media, telecoms, banking, retail and manufacturing verticals.
Simon is looking forward to getting his feet under the table at Miura and says he was attracted by the market position Miura has earned and the significant growth opportunity ahead.
“Miura is a business on the move. It’s got a great brand, phenomenal client base, strong leadership team and industry leading products. It’s a really exciting time to be here with the market just starting to realise the amazing potential in mobile and smart POS,” he explains.
