Fujitsu New Zealand Appoints Mike Bullock as GM, Enterprise Sales

Wellington, 16 May 2012 – Fujitsu has appointed Mike Bullock to the role of General Manager, Enterprise Sales in New Zealand. He will lead the national sales team responsible for the range of Fujitsu’s offerings including licensing and hardware, through to software development, application management and outsourcing.

As a member of the executive team Mike will contribute to the overall strategy of Fujitsu New Zealand, in particular its client alignment strategy, partnerships and vertical market development for continuing growth.

The majority of Mike’s 22 years in the ICT industry have been in sales and sales management, focussing on managed services. Critically, he has experience from both the vendor and client perspectives from his roles in organisations such as ANZ Bank, Comtex, Datacom and Telecom/Gen-i. 

In response to his appointment, Mike said: “Fujitsu offers the perfect combination of a nimble local company with the might and resources of a 170,000 person global organisation. I am pleased to bring to my new role a proven capacity to improve the way the sales relationship can operate - whether that is how we design a solution for a client, how we motivate our people, or how we change the market through innovative thinking.”
