Wildix, a provider of AI-powered business solutions, has appointed Jeff Winnett as general manager for the Americas. Winnett will oversee Wildix’s regional growth strategy, market leadership efforts and partner ecosystem development across North, Central and South America, the company said.
Winnett has more than 30 years of experience in communications and channel sales leadership, including the creation of growth-focused partnerships for SMB to enterprise organizations. He most recently served as VP and head of global channel sales at Fusion Connect, when he led channel strategy and partner development. He’s also held senior sales leadership roles at RingCentral, Honeywell, Vonage and Cbeyond.
“Jeff is a proven leader who knows how to help partners win and how to scale responsibly,” said Steve Osler, CEO and co-founder at Wildix. “His experience building channel-first growth engines will strengthen our presence in the Americas and help more businesses adopt secure, practical communications that improve day-to-day operations.”
Winnett will focus on expanding partner recruitment, strengthening enablement and helping solution providers deliver measurable outcomes for mid-market and small business customers across the Americas. He’ll work closely with Wildix partners to accelerate adoption of the company’s AI-driven UCaaS and CCaaS portfolio, officials said.
Winnett’s appointment follows recent investments by Wildix to deepen the company’s presence in high-growth North American markets and create more opportunities for partners, the company said.
“I’m excited to join Wildix at a time when partners are looking for clarity and support and a platform that can create real business value,” Winnett said. “Wildix’s channel-first approach and focus on AI-enabled unified communications give partners a strong foundation to grow, and I look forward to expanding the ecosystem across the Americas.”
