• Zuora, the subscription commerce and billing leader, today announced that it is continuing to grow its executive management team with the addition of Brian Bell as Chief Marketing Officer.
• Bell is a veteran of building market enterprise software leaders and brings years of enterprise experience and expertise to Zuora.

Marketing, Messaging Leadership Experience

• Prior to joining Zuora, Bell was General Manager of the Service and Portfolio Management customer solution unit at CA Technologies, including the market-leading CA service management, asset management, and CA Clarity project and portfolio management (PPM) solution families. During this time, Bell transitioned CA from a traditional product sales and licensing to a recurring revenue business model, providing him with the unique perspective to help Zuora customers that are making the shift to the Subscription Economy.
• Before joining CA, Bell was Vice President of Solutions Marketing at BMC Software, where he was the marketing leader behind the Business Service Management vision and strategy launched by BMC that fundamentally changed the enterprise IT management landscape from one focused on point products to one focused on selling solutions to CIOs that aligned technology directly to the business services.
• Earlier, Bell led worldwide marketing at Remedy, where he was responsible for building a marketing organization that helped to establish Remedy as the market leading IT Service Management solution, which was acquired by BMC in 2002. His role included managing product marketing, partner marketing, and integrated marketing and communications. Bell also spent several years with Boston Consulting Group (BCG), and has held business development and product management positions at Extricity, a business-to-business integration software vendor, and Kao Corporation, a leading Japanese consumer products company.
