Radius Announces Four New Executive Hires

Management team expands to fuel rapid growth, product innovation, and customer acquisition

SAN FRANCISCO--()--Radius, the business-to-business predictive marketing software company, is pleased to announce four new additions to its executive team.

David Obrand has joined as Chief Operating Officer; Jerry Clarno has joined as Vice President of Sales; Andrew Garvin has joined as Senior Vice President of Strategy; Angela Zener has joined as Senior Vice President of Marketing.

"We are thrilled to have David, Jerry, Andrew and Angela as part of the Radius family during this exciting period of hyper growth for the company," said Darian Shirazi, Founder and CEO of Radius. "These talented executives have been instrumental in building some of the most successful SaaS companies over the past decade and we look forward to leveraging their collective experiences as we scale the organization to deliver best in class products and customer experience."

Mr. Obrand was previously Chief Customer Officer at Yammer, playing an instrumental role in the company’s fast-paced growth and eventual acquisition by Microsoft for $1.2 billion in 2012. Prior to Yammer, Mr. Obrand also served as CEO of Fuze, a creator of cloud-based communication technology, and championed the philosophy that powerful analytics and data help drive ROI for companies. He also spent a decade at Salesforce.com in senior sales roles, including VP of Vertical Sales.

Mr. Clarno brings more than 20 years experience building and scaling highly successful, hyper-growth sales teams at companies like Box, SuccessFactors, OneLogin and FedEx. At Box, Mr. Clarno grew the original sales team to 50+ members and reached $50+ million in run rate. While at SuccessFactors, Mr. Clarno founded and expanded the SMB sales organization - one of the key initiatives for their successful IPO. Before transitioning into enterprise software, Jerry spent a number of years growing a $100+ million inside sales organization at FedEx.

Mr. Garvin comes to Radius after working with Peter Thiel and Ajay Royan on the launch of Mithril, a growth stage venture fund with $540M assets under management. Early in his career, Andrew worked with Palantir Technologies while serving as a portfolio manager at a global macro hedge fund.

Ms. Zener brings more than 15 years of experience in Marketing and Management Consulting. Previously, Angela led teams at SAP, LexisNexis, Findly, and Towers Perrin. Angela has successfully taken many new enterprise software offerings to market and has achieved tremendous results through successful product launches in new and saturated markets, including SAP’s first hosted CRM and ERP solution, LexisNexis’ social and mobile applications, marketing automation systems and talent acquisition platforms.
