Schneider Electric has announced the appointment of Ivan Habovcik as Vice President for the IT Division in Ireland.
With an outstanding track record for growing international sales revenues and leading business transformation within both the emerging and mature markets of Central Europe and Asia, Habovcik is the perfect choice to replace previous VP Vincent Barro, who has moved to a new role managing the IT Division in Switzerland.
For the past decade Habovcik has served Schneider Electric as business development for its Single-Phase UPS business in Central Eastern Europe and Israel, covering a region of fifteen countries and twelve different languages. He has also held roles as Country Manager and Vice President, IT Business for the Czech Republic, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Vietnam.
“Ireland presents a perfect opportunity to showcase our industry-leading edge computing offers” Said Habovcik. “I’m proud to be moving to a new European country that’s seen such significant development in both the technology and data centre sectors, and I’m looking forward to working as part of the Ireland team to drive the business into a new period of accelerated growth.”
