ControlUp, a digital employee experience (DEX) management company, named Becca Chambers as its new CCO. Chambers brings over 15 years of experience in building tech brands and leading strategic communications for enterprise software companies.
She will specifically lead end-to-end communications strategies, helping customers, partners and employees connect with ControlUp’s DEX products and vision. Chambers will be responsible for ControlUp global communications, including external media and analyst relations, internal communications, social media, executive communications and brand storytelling.
“As our past two quarters have shown, ControlUp has the opportunity not only to lead the DEX market category but to define its evolution,” said Jed Ayres, CEO, ControlUp. “Our product value continues to set us apart, and we needed a marketing communications innovator with a proven track record to highlight our success and tell our story. Becca is more than we could have asked for, and we are thrilled to add her to our growing leadership team. Her communications expertise will no doubt be instrumental in reaching our goals for global expansion.”
With experience ranging from Fortune 500 companies to early and late-stage ventures, new upstarts and PE-backed enterprises, Chambers’ skillset has been integral to eight successful tech M&A transitions, from both the buyer and seller perspectives.
“Digital employee experience has never been more important, and we’re in a moment in the global workforce where employers that get this right will outpace their competitors,” noted Chambers. “An effective employee experience is no longer a ‘nice-to-have’—it’s a must. As a communications leader, I’ve always been passionate about creating strong, inclusive employee experiences through communications and engagement. The opportunity to combine my passion for employee experience with ControlUp’s mission to deliver a superior digital employee experience is a gift. I’m thrilled to join an exceptional team and look forward to telling our exciting story to the world.”
Prior to joining ControlUp, she served as SVP of Global Brand and Communications for Alludo, leading brand and communications for it and its subsidiary brands such as Parallels, WinZip, CorelDRAW and MindManager. Chambers has also held leadership positions with Ivanti, MobileIron, Idaptive, Centrify and McAfee, and is a board advisor to multiple cybersecurity startups.
She will report to CMO, Steven Hua.
