Onguard expands UK sales with BDM appointment

Order-to-cash payment process specialist Onguard has announced the appointment of Andy Bass as it’s new Business Development Manager (BDM) as the company continues its UK expansion and exploits new opportunities in the region.

With more than 20 years’ experience within the IT industry in the UK and Europe, Bass has held a number of senior roles including as the UK CEO of a major multinational, where he was charged with improving the company’s cash conversion cycle through direction and focus on reducing the monthly DSO position of the company.

More recently he has held sales positions at a variety of SaaS-based businesses operating in the accounts payable (AP) and accounts receivable (AR) automation and incentive payments space. The appointment will strengthen Onguard’s position as it expands its presence in the UK following a period of continued growth in the region and increased demand for automated order-to-cash solutions from UK businesses.

Martin de Heus, VP of Sales, Onguard, said“The UK is already an important market for Onguard, and Andy brings added passion and experience to a growing UK team, as well as unique customer and sales experience. There has recently been a noticeable increase in interest from UK companies of all sizes seeking to fully automate their order-to-cash process from cash collection and allocation, to billings and risk management, and we are well placed to fulfill those needs.”
