Mimecast Limited announced the appointment of Chris Dollase to General Counsel, effective February 1st, 2023. Chris has more than 20 years of experience leading legal teams in the cybersecurity industry and served as Mimecast's deputy general counsel and chief compliance officer for the last five years. Dollase will be instrumental in maintaining Mimecast's culture of integrity and delivering on the company's growth strategy.

Dollase replaces Robert Nault who will step down as general counsel after more than six years in the role. Dollase joined Mimecast in October 2017 as vice president and deputy general counsel. He was promoted to senior vice president in 2021 and has led the company's compliance function since he started.

Prior to Mimecast, Dollase served as lead counsel at RSA Security for more than 10 years. Dollase helped to navigate Mimecast through seven acquisitions during his tenure, and most recently played a vital role in Permira's acquisition of Mimecast in May 2022.
