Womply Appoints Brad Paterson as the Company's First Chief Operating Officer
Womply, the leader in front office software for small- and medium-sized
businesses (SMBs), today announced the appointment of Brad Paterson as
the company's first chief operating officer (COO). He will oversee all
customer-facing business operations, including sales, marketing, growth,
customer success, brand, and external communications.
"Brad helped build QuickBooks Online into the most popular small
business software solution in the world, so he's already seen the scale
of business we're going to build at Womply," says Womply founder Toby
Scammell. "Brad's experience in driving growth at Intuit (News - Alert), in
addition to his deep background in payments, makes for an ideal fit.
We're thrilled to add him to our already stellar executive team as we
position Womply as the software system of record for small businesses."
Paterson has more than two decades of experience scaling customer-facing
operations such as sales, marketing, and customer success at large and
small organizations. Most recently, Paterson was a vice president at
Intuit, where he led go-to-market operations for QuickBooks Online. He
helped scale QuickBooks Online to more than 3 million users, with 1,500
new small business customers added every day.
Prior to Intuit, Paterson spent a decade serving in executive roles at
PayPal (News - Alert) and Visa, where he led merchant services, consumer products, and
new ventures. He also co-founded a digital commerce and payments
consulting company and has served as a board member and strategic
advisor to various startups.
Paterson joins Womply at a time of rapid growth. Inthe past few years,
the company has acquired more than 150,000
paying small business customers, partnered with more than 50
payment processors and merchant acquirers, and grown to more than 200
employees in San Francisco and Lehi, Utah. In July, Womply appointed
Tony Grimminck, formerly of HotelTonight and StubHub, as the
company's first chief financial officer (CFO).
"Throughout my career, I've been obsessed with leveling the playing
field for small business, which is why I'm excited to join Womply," says
Paterson. "No company is better positioned than Womply to serve tens of
millions of small businesses in critical and unique ways and take the
lead in the massive small business front office software market. I'm
excited to help this company reach its tremendous potential."
Paterson is a graduate of the University of Newcastle in New South
Wales, Australia, where earned a bachelor's degree in commerce, with a
major in marketing.
