During his nine years at CA, Fisher has held a number of sales posts, including those of regional Marketing VP and Sales Operations VP.

Before working for Sterling Software, he was Managing Director of Information Advantage (Australia), following a number of senior management positions in Australian and multinational organisations.

Between them, Vicki, Stephen and Jim hold a formidable wealth of know-how, skills and experience, which I believe will make a significant difference to our day-to-day sales effectiveness.”
