Logicalis UK&I strengthens leadership team

Logicalis UK&I has appointed Anamaria Gibbons as Marketing and Communications Director. With a decade of communications experience at other global IT providers, Gibbons has a mandate to ‘reawaken’ the Logicalis brand in the UK&I market.

Key priorities ahead of Gibbons include delivering a strategy that encompasses go-to-market initiatives for Networking & Infrastructure, Cloud, Data, and Security sectors all the while supporting growth in a key region for the business.

Commenting on the appointment, Neil Eke, CEO, of Logicalis UK&I, said: “Attracting the calibre of people like Anamaria from one of the most successful resellers in the marketplace is just another sign of how focused we are to drive real change in UK and Irish businesses. We are determined to showcase the strengths of our services and elevate our brand to existing, and future customers. With Anamaria on board, I am confident we will be able to amplify our services and the success stories of how we are supporting our customers.”

One of the services where Logicalis UK&I is leading the way is in IT sustainability and the recently launched Sustainable IT solutions blueprint designed to propel organisations towards a more environmentally conscious and carbon-efficient IT infrastructure. Using the blueprint will help businesses evaluate, navigate and mitigate carbon in their environment through a data-driven approach to carbon reduction and circularity.

Newly appointed Marketing and Communications Director, Anamaria Gibbons, commented: “I’m looking forward to showcasing the many interesting projects and examples of how Logicalis has supported its customers over decades of being a global IT solutions and managed services provider.

When getting to know the people within Logicalis, what struck me was their determination to create strong partnerships with their customers and help them navigate their IT challenges, providing the best solutions for their business - not just selling services.

I will focus on unearthing more stories about how Logicalis delivers true value to its customers and make sure we get our messages to cut through to the customers in a very competitive marketplace.”
