NetSol Appoints MD for Europe, Hires Wholesale Finance Director



NetSol Technologies appointed Tim O’Sullivan as managing director of NetSol Technologies Europe (NTE) and Chris Tobey as sales director of Global Wholesale Financial Solutions, effective immediately.

O’Sullivan will oversee growth initiatives in Europe for NFS Ascent, the company’s next-generation finance and leasing solution, while Tobey, in the newly created position, will have the responsibilities of overall strategy, creating relationships and executing sales for Ascent Wholesale.

“Europe is a critical component of our growth strategy. With Tim’s appointment, we have put a focused and proven executive in charge of executing our growth plan for NFS Ascent in Europe while building scale into the business to manage that growth,” said Najeeb Ghauri, NetSol founder, chairman and CEO. “Chris’ in-depth knowledge and domain experience will be invaluable to enhance the successful relationships already established throughout Asia, Europe and the Americas. His appointment comes at a very significant and exciting time to support the continuing growth of NetSol in all of our regions.”

With more than 25 years of experience in the financial services and software sectors, O’Sullivan has spent the last decade in leasing and asset finance software, specifically enhancing and building global sales capabilities across multiple markets and geographies. Prior to his appointment, O’Sullivan served as head of business development and strategy at NetSol Technologies Europe, where he was responsible for leading the company’s key strategic client relationships.

“I am delighted to lead the accelerating pace of development for NetSol,” O’Sullivan said. “Having been with NetSol for over two years and witnessed the remarkable capabilities that the company possesses, I have every confidence that we are now in a strong position to leverage our global brand and expertise for the benefit of existing and new clients.”

Tobey, formerly a business development manager for Sword Apak, brings nearly 10 years of domain experience coupled with detailed market knowledge. In his previous role, Tobey was responsible for developing new markets, leading and managing sales opportunities, along with establishing relationships with strategic business partners.

“I am delighted to be joining the NetSol team,” Tobey said. “Being a customer oriented individual, this new role will allow me to work with lenders to provide their customers with agile, innovative, and robust Wholesale business solutions.”

NetSol is a global business services and enterprise application solutions provider to the asset finance and leasing industry.
