Surveil has appointed Eric Gohdes as Regional Business Manager, Americas, and Andrew Raynor as Regional Business Manager, United Kingdom and Ireland, strengthening the company’s commercial leadership across two strategically important markets.
The appointments reflect Surveil’s continued investment in regional execution, enterprise growth, and partner expansion at a time when organizations are placing greater scrutiny on cloud and AI spend. As enterprises look for stronger financial discipline, operational accountability, and measurable returns across increasingly complex technology estates, regional leadership is becoming even more important to how the market is served.
By expanding its commercial leadership in the Americas and UKI, Surveil is reinforcing its ability to work more closely with customers, partners, and regional stakeholders while supporting the company’s broader growth strategy.
Why these appointments matter
Cloud and AI investment decisions are under more pressure than ever. Enterprise leaders are being asked to justify spend more clearly, improve governance, and align technology investment to business value. That shift is increasing demand for platforms and partners that can bring both strategic insight and operational precision to the table.
For Surveil, that means continuing to invest not only in platform innovation, but also in the regional leadership needed to support customers and partners with greater speed, depth, and market understanding.
Supported by a growing ecosystem of strategic partners across services, licensing, and distribution, Surveil continues to build the commercial structure required to serve the market more effectively. Strengthening regional leadership is a meaningful part of that next phase.
Leadership to support regional execution
Eric Gohdes, Regional Business Manager, Americas
Eric Gohdes brings extensive experience across software asset management, cloud economics, and enterprise technology sales. He previously held senior leadership roles at Certero, including Director, North America, and Director of International Business Development. Earlier in his career, he held roles at Snow Software, SoftwareONE, and Microsoft, building a strong track record in enterprise account development, regional growth, and software and cloud value realization.
His appointment adds proven commercial leadership and deep market understanding to Surveil’s Americas business.
Andrew Raynor, Regional Business Manager, United Kingdom and Ireland
Andrew Raynor brings more than 20 years of experience in technology sales and business development, with deep expertise in SaaS go-to-market strategy, regional expansion, and partner development. Most recently, as General Manager for EMEA and APAC at TalentNeuron, he led go-to-market initiatives, supported market expansion, and strengthened strategic partnerships across multiple regions. Prior to that, he spent eight years with Apptio in EMEA helping to scale its FinOps platform through a multibillion-dollar acquisition by IBM, and previously held a similar role at Software AG for four years.
His experience scaling commercial organizations in complex SaaS markets adds significant strength to Surveil’s leadership presence in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Strengthening execution where it matters most
Commenting on the appointments, Peter Turpin, Chief Executive Officer at Surveil, said:
“Eric and Andrew bring the leadership experience and regional insight needed to strengthen our execution and extend our presence where it matters most. Their appointments reflect a deliberate investment in the commercial capabilities required to support enterprise growth, deepen partner engagement, and serve the market with greater precision. As organizations place more scrutiny on cloud and AI spend, that regional strength becomes increasingly important.”
These appointments represent more than individual leadership additions. They reflect Surveil’s continued focus on building the commercial strength needed to support enterprise growth, deepen partner relationships, and respond to the evolving demands of the market with clarity and confidence.
As organizations seek greater visibility, governance, and financial control across cloud and AI investments, Surveil continues to invest in the people, expertise, and regional presence required to help customers and partners move forward with greater precision.
