E2open Parent Holdings, Inc. announced the appointment of Greg Randolph as chief commercial officer. Randolph will join e2open’s executive team on July 31 and report to Michael Farlekas, president and chief executive officer. In this newly created role, Randolph will lead e2open’s global commercial organization and be responsible for refining the company’s go-to-market strategy and execution, continuing to accelerate growth.

Randolph has more than 25 years of experience as a go-to-market software executive with an established track record of leading high-performance sales organizations and business segments at public and privately-owned software enterprises. Most recently, Randolph served as chief revenue officer at Quest Software, a global enterprise management and security software provider. At Quest, Randolph led comprehensive go-to-market transformation efforts that grew sales productivity, increased partner-sourced bookings, and drove organic revenue growth.

Randolph’s prior experience includes multiple sales and business leadership roles at CA Technologies, one of the larger independent software firms at that time. At CA Technologies, Randolph led global go-to-market efforts focused on selling a diverse portfolio of software products, managing complex sales cycles with large enterprise clients, and increasing penetration with existing customers – all of which are ideal experiences for his new role at e2open. In addition, e2open is eliminating the chief operating officer role upon the departure of Peter Hantman, who will leave the company to pursue new professional opportunities.

Hantman will be working closely with Randolph and other members of the executive team over the next several months to ensure an optimal transition.
