“That’s exactly what we try to do here at Procurant, and I couldn’t be happier to welcome Ian to the team.”
Grow brings to Procurant his experience in sales and sales management, most recently at iTradeNetwork where he was EVP and head of enterprise sales working with large food retailers throughout North America. He has also held executive roles at FIS, Advent Software and Thomson Reuters, and spent the early years of his career with AT&T and Motorola.
