We’re looking for our new CEO!
In CMA, we strongly believe in the benefits of integrated business software applications. Integration is the glue that underpins core business processes and the data that flows within an organization, and is central to digital transformation, BI, and automation initiatives.
We’ve tripled the number of employees during the past two years and are now focused on scale up and international expansion, with the right go-to-market strategies and through strong alliances. To achieve our ambitious goals, we need a CEO who loves the combination of strategic thinking and operational focus!
