Dayne Turbitt, Anaplan

Anaplan, provider of a market-leading platform for business planning and decision-making, announced the appointment of Dayne Turbitt to the position of Managing Director for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA). Turbitt joins Anaplan from Dell Technologies, where he spent twelve years, most recently as Senior Vice President and General Manager of Dell Technologies’ UK business.

Turbitt takes the EMEA helm at Anaplan at a pivotal time for enterprise digital transformation. As businesses in the region grapple with an increasingly complex environment, from core inflation pressures to a continued cost-of-living crisis, Anaplan is determined to equip decision-makers with the insight and agility they need to operate effectively in the market.

“I am delighted to join Anaplan at such an important point in time,” said Turbitt. “Organisations are searching for ways to address their critical needs in a market that is constantly evolving, and as a leader I know how challenging it can be to make strategic decisions without the right insights in hand.”

“Dayne is a strong, collaborative leader with a proven track record,” said Bill Schuh, Anaplan’s chief revenue officer. “He shares our belief that Anaplan’s capabilities are instrumental to EMEA’s leading organizations. We’re confident he’ll help us to continue to scale our business in EMEA and to capitalize on our significant market opportunity.”

Turbitt brings more than 25 years of technology leadership and operational excellence to the Anaplan team in EMEA, including a wealth of enterprise sales experience. Turbitt holds a bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Cape Town.
