McCann and Garcia land Kaseya promotions

Cyber security and IT management platform, Kaseya has promoted Dermot McCann to lead Europe as its new executive vice president and general manager, and Daniel Garcia has moved up as vice president and general manager for APAC.

“We are strengthening our position in Europe by bolstering our leadership in the region. We recognise the importance of this market, and are committed to our growth there,” Kaseya chief customer officer  Joe Smolarski said.

“Similarly, Asia-Pacific is equally critical to our business and therefore, we continue to allocate resources to support our partners based in APAC.”

This is a coming home for McCann, who is originally from Galway, and will now be based in London.

“I have had the pleasure of partnering with MSPs and helping them grow their revenue and improve their profitability,” McCann said.

“I look forward to doing this in the EMEA region and understanding their unique needs to ensure Kaseya invests and delivers an exceptional experience for them.”

McCann has over 25 years of experience in leadership roles with global technology companies like Optus and IBM. He returned to Kaseya in 2021 taking on APAC duties.

Garcia will now serve as vice president and general manager for APAC and will oversee the go-to-market strategy for APAC, including new business and account management.

Most recently, he helped launch TruPeer, Kaseya’s managed services provider training and mentoring group in Australia.

Prior to joining Kaseya, he was the CEO at Virtual IT Group.

“I am eager to take on this new position with Kaseya, and to further support our partners in the APAC region so they can be the most successful and profitable MSPs globally,” Garcia said.

“We have a thriving MSP industry in APAC, and I want to make sure Kaseya continues to deliver to its customers and helps them grow as their needs evolve.”
