Jared Waterman has been appointed CFO of the company. In addition to leading Nozomi Networks' global finance organisation, Waterman will be responsible for support functions, including overseeing the finance, legal and IT teams.

"I'm excited to welcome Jared to Nozomi Networks," says CEO Edgard Capdevielle. "He has a proven track record in guiding private companies through major growth phases as well as entering public markets or strategic acquisitions. He will play an integral role as we accelerate our business."

The company says Waterman brings a number of years of experience in successfully executing strategic financial growth plans, fundraising and IPOs to his role at Nozomi Networks. As Vice President of Finance for Pandora, he scaled Finance from the ground up, taking the company through an IPO and growing revenue to $1.5 billion. 

As Senior Vice President of Finance at Yext, he helped guide global expansion efforts that grew the company to more than $350 million in annual revenue. Before joining Nozomi Networks, he was Chief Financial Officer at HR tech company Inflection. At Inflection Jared helped guide the company's go-to-market expansion, as well as helped drive a successful exit in Q2 2022.

"Nozomi Networks is at a critical phase in its evolution. Our team, technology, and global presence uniquely positions us to capitalise on our market leadership," says Waterman.
