He previously served as Executive Vice President of Sales at SWK, as well as Practice Director of the Company’s Warehouse Management System practice. In his new role, and as the organization’s senior-most sales leader, Andy is now responsible for sales performance throughout the entire organization, the profitable achievement of sales goals, and for aligning sales objectives with company business strategy.
Mr. Nunez stated, “I am excited to take on this expanded role. We are aggressively working to fully integrate our operations to better serve our customers and prospects. We feel it is important that sales take the lead in this effort. I look forward to leading that charge.”
