The proptech property management has shoehorned in a former SiteMinder employee to drive its ambitious growth plans.
Dai Williams joins the company after a successful 14-year tenure at the open hotel commerce platform, which included a three-year spell as its chief growth officer. His time at SiteMinder saw him play a pivotal role in globalising the business while growing its employee ranks.
Mr Williams’ arrival follows Re-Leased’s recent round of funding, led by JLL Spark.
The new role will see him split his time between the company’s New Zealand, Australia, United States of America, and United Kingdom offices.
Tom Wallace, chief executive officer at Re-Leased, heralded Mr Williams as a “passionate people leader” and expressed the outfit’s delight at bringing him “on board to push forward the next stage of our growth as we make strides into the US market and develop new integrations and products.”
He views the business as being at a crucial juncture of its evolution with a chance to push on and become a leader in “next-generation commercial real estate technology.” For this reason, Mr Wallace believes that “Dai’s appointment is a key step towards this goal, bringing with him firsthand experience of taking a disruptive SaaS business from the earliest stages through to a successful IPO.”
Mr Williams, who will lead the company’s revenue growth by overseeing development in key international markets, the expansion of its core software platform, and the rollout of a series of new products and partnerships, is excited to enter his new role.
“I have a passion for working with ambitious people and businesses, and helping them scale.” He credited Re-Leased as being one of the several “wonderful companies coming out of New Zealand and Australia taking software products to the world” and added that he can’t wait to start working with the team, product, and market.
In addition to Mr Williams’ arrival, the last 12 months have seen Re-Leased enter two partnerships with the Real Estate Institute of Australia (REIA) last June — a multi-year partnership — and in October, with the launch of its Commercial Agency Engagement Program.
