Following the acquisition by family investment firm, Meyer Mundell Limited earlier this year, Portman is delivering on its promise of expanding into key markets with the appointments of Pieter Meissenheimer in the Middle East and Andy Shields in North America.
Pieter joins Portman as a new partner in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), with more than 15 years’ experience as a finance professional with a key focus on cloud solution integration. He began his career working as a financial accountant in a project lead role for a number of conglomerates within multiple industries in Europe, before moving into consultancy across a range of regions, including EMEA, APAC, the US, India, Africa and Singapore. By making the strategic shift into the world of recruitment, Pieter hopes to help build the talent pipeline for the future leaders of the digital infrastructure sector.
To support businesses in North America, Andy Shields joins with over 20 years of experience within the data center industry. Andy’s extensive background with senior level relationships across the industry will enable Portman to further broaden its network of C-level executives. Having operated and conducted business internationally across 50 different countries, Andy’s cross-cultural experience will play a pivotal role in developing Portman’s position in the US and Canada, creating new opportunities for Portman’s clients.
Mike Meyer, Managing Director of Portman Partners, says Andy and Pieter will play a key role in strengthening the firm’s global presence: “I am delighted to welcome Pieter and Andy to the global Portman team as partners for the Middle East and North America respectively,” he says. “Their experience, knowledge and expertise across the digital infrastructure industry will be invaluable for Portman and its clients as we continue to broaden our network and global reach – and as we launch new services in the future.
“Investing in our team is key to supporting our clients, so we hope to explore further partnerships to strengthen our team and to continue finding the best-fit and leadership-ready people as demand for our services increases,” Mike concludes.
