Australia – Digital marketing and automation platform Constant Contact has announced its appointment of Renee Chaplin as its new vice president of Asia-Pacific.
In her new role, Chaplin will be responsible for leading Constant Contact’s growth in the APAC region and will be scaling its operations.
Based in the company’s APAC headquarters in Brisbane, Chaplin brings over 20 years of experience growing B2B brands. Prior to joining Constant Contact, Chaplin also worked for a variety of technology companies, from Australian start-ups to multinational SaaS organisations specialising in AI, automation, customer experience and billing technology.
This strategic hire represents Constant Contact’s continued investment into growing its presence in Australia following the acquisition of Vision6 in 2022, as Chaplin will help drive broader awareness and adoption of Constant Contact’s digital marketing platform in APAC and deliver value to customers in that region.
Speaking on her appointment, Chaplin said, “Constant Contact is well known globally for being a pioneer of digital marketing innovation in the small business space, and the company’s recent advancements in AI and marketing automation make this an exciting time to join the organisation.”
“Our Vision6 product is already Australia’s most reliable email marketing and SMS platform with sovereign onshore data storage and local customer support. I look forward to growing Constant Contact’s APAC business and helping our customers and agency partners develop stronger relationships with their customers”, she added.
Meanwhile, Frank Vella, CEO at Constant Contact, commented, “We’ve invested in APAC through our acquisition of Vision6, and we see an opportunity to build on that momentum to deliver even more value to our global customers and partners. I am confident that Renée’s experience and local presence will help accelerate our efforts in APAC and make an immediate impact on our business and our customers’ businesses within the region.”
