CAMPBELL, CA — (Marketwire) — 02/28/13 — , a leading cloud file collaboration service, today announced the appointment of Ned Sizer as chief financial officer. Sizer-s success leading IPOs, mergers and acquisitions at global technology and cloud-based companies including Ancestry.com, Silver Spring Networks, Omniture and Macromedia (acquired by Adobe) will allow YouSendIt to continue its rapid growth trajectory. His addition is the latest in a string of new management hires made by recently appointed CEO, Brad Garlinghouse.
“It-s no secret that I strongly believe that culture has a significant impact on the success of a company. The executive management team is a reflection of where the company-s headed, not where it has been,” said Brad Garlinghouse, YouSendIt CEO. “We are gaining momentum and growing steadily with more than 40 million registered users and $57 million in revenue last year. Ned-s financial background and vast experience executing successful IPOs and acquisitions makes him the perfect fit for YouSendIt.”
“YouSendIt is clearly growing and is a company on the rise, it added nearly 10 million registered users in the past six months alone,” said Ned Sizer, YouSendIt chief financial officer. “The fundamentals for this business are tremendous and I-m looking forward to helping the company continue to scale both internationally and domestically with this exceptional leadership team.”
In an effort to continue to grow and scale YouSendIt in an increasingly competitive space, Garlinghouse has overhauled the YouSendIt management team in recent months. Joining YouSendIt “veteran” is a new team of tech industry leaders with a wide range of consumer and enterprise expertise, and of course, all have that little extra something to add to the company culture:
