David Zember, now Vice President of Global Channels and Alliances at iManage, has over three decades of leadership experience. He has been instrumental in driving partner-led growth strategies in various capacities at companies such as Qlik, Verint, and Amazon Web Services. Zember’s role will involve leveraging strategic alliances, technology partners, and resellers to amplify customer success and expand market reach. His previous tenure at Qlik was marked by significant contributions, including his leadership in a partner program that represented roughly half the company’s annual recurring revenue.
The leadership of Begin and Zember is seen as pivotal for iManage’s future, which is increasingly reliant on connecting systems of record with integrated technologies. As businesses evolve toward more automated and interoperable solutions, these appointments are designed to catalyze growth through fostering deeper technological partnerships and extending the reach of iManage’s service offerings.
Both leaders report to Pat Eskew, the company’s Chief Revenue Officer, who highlighted that strengthening partnerships is central to iManage’s business strategy. Emerging from this inflection point, the company aims to innovate within a partner-first framework, enhancing customer value and sustaining growth across its platform.
