SAP New Zealand has made three new appointments to its New Zealand operations: two based in Auckland and one in Wellington.

Both Phillippa and John are based in Auckland. In Wellington, Michael Wray has been appointed Solutions Advisor focusing on the public sector.

Phillippa has extensive experience in the ERP market, most recently working in recruitment, placing SAP contractors in roles with SAP customers throughout New Zealand. Previously she was an account director at Xelocity (formerly Mi Services) and prior to that a director at Koorb Consulting.

John’s career spans many years in finance and operational roles across IT, telecommunications and not-for-profit sectors. Most recently he was CFO at the Problem Gambling Foundation and prior to that he was at GEAC for a number of years and Racal Electronics before that.

Michael is a chartered management accountant with significant project experience with SAP implementations in New Zealand, Australia, the United Kingdom and Asia. Michael joins SAP from Tenzing (formerly Bearing Point) and prior to that he was a senior member of the SAP finance team at Nestlé in the UK.

Graeme Riley, SAP New Zealand managing director, says the new recruits bring a wealth of relevant experience to their respective roles.

“I’m extremely pleased to have been able to attract people of the calibre of Phillippa, John and Michael to SAP. They all have impressive track records and strong relationships in the industry. I’m confident that our customers and partners will benefit from their knowledge and expertise.”
