Acronis recently announced the appointment of Jim Tedesco as Chief Revenue Officer. He will lead global sales and go-to-market execution for the firm. This role includes overseeing Professional Services and Solution Engineering. Furthermore, he will manage the global go-to-market strategy for the cyber protection leader. Tedesco brings more than 30 years of executive leadership experience to this new position.
“Jim’s experience scaling global partner-driven revenue organizations makes him a strong addition to the Acronis leadership team,” said Jan-Jaap Jager, CEO of Acronis. “Our next phase of growth is about scaling the business through partners at a much higher level, signing more MSPs globally, helping existing partners grow faster, and building a more predictable and scalable revenue engine around that motion. We see a significant opportunity to scale Acronis beyond $1 billion in revenue, and achieving that requires strong execution, operational discipline, and deep alignment with our partner ecosystem. Jim brings the leadership and experience to help us accelerate that growth globally.”
Jim Tedesco most recently served as GM and SVP of Customer Success at a leading backup and replication software company. He successfully grew that firm’s revenue from hundreds of millions to billions. Additionally, he oversaw global customer lifecycle initiatives during his tenure there. His experience includes building high-performing teams across global markets.
Accelerating Global Revenue and Partner Growth
The new Chief Revenue Officer will focus on strengthening partner relationships globally. He aims to drive consistent revenue attainment and MSP-led growth. Moreover, he will build a more predictable commercial engine across all regions. This appointment follows the recent addition of Christiaan Franken as VP Revenue Operations.
“I’m excited to join Acronis at such an important stage of the company’s growth,” said Jim Tedesco. “Acronis has built a strong market position with its natively integrated platform, combining more than 20 protection, automation, and management scenarios and 25+ AI-powered capabilities into a single solution. Combined with its deeply partner-centric approach, supporting more than 21,000 MSP partners, 750,000 customers, and 50+ data centers globally, Acronis is uniquely positioned for continued growth. I look forward to working with the team to strengthen execution, scale globally, and help partners and customers succeed.”
