Shannon Ingrey has joined software-as-a-service business BigCommerce as general manager of APAC, bringing more than 15 years of global e-commerce experience.

A believer in “best of breed” technology stacks and platform customisation, Ingrey will oversee the business’ local marketing and sales activities, while working to create new relationships in the region.

“I’ve watched the team at BigCommerce deliver a highly functional, truly open SaaS platform that rivals enterprise-grade solutions over the past few years,” Ingrey said.

“As the fastest growing e-commerce region in the world, the opportunity to shape BigCommerce’s presence in APAC was one that I couldn’t pass up.”

Ingrey most recently served as chief revenue officer at Shippit, following a five-year stint at Bronto Software as general manager of APAC, during which he grew to over 100 mid and enterprise-level customers.

BigCommerce chief executive Brent Bellm said he looked forward to working with Ingrey.

“Shannon’s experience as a leader and his passion for the e-commerce space made him the perfect fit for the this role,” Bellm said.

“He has a genuine interest in the e-commerce industry and where it’s heading, and is a strong asset to our growing APAC business.”
