DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FireHost, a secure cloud hosting company with offices in the US and UK, has appointed Jim Ciampaglio to senior vice president of global sales and marketing. Ciampaglio joined FireHost in late 2011 after holding many successful sales and executive roles in related high-tech and hosting companies. In his role, Ciampaglio will further expand FireHost's global distribution channels, including the implementation of a FireHost partner program, while overseeing business development activities for the company.
"Jim is an accomplished executive with broad revenue generation experience in technology and hosting. He brings with him a strong reputation for organizational leadership, which is going to be vital as FireHost continues to grow," said Chris Drake, CEO of FireHost. "We're excited to have Jim on our team to drive our sales and partner programs."
Ciampaglio was previously the COO at NeoSpire Managed Hosting. There he was responsible for all operational departments and helped guide the company through its acquisition by Hosting.com. Prior to that role, he was vice president of sales at NaviSite, a Time Warner Cable Company that provided enterprise cloud hosting and managed services. With NaviSite he launched an SMB division and successfully implemented a global sales team focused on developing the company's expansion into new markets. Ciampaglio was also the senior director of sales for NTT/Verio, a provider of hosted applications worldwide. Ciampaglio created the viaVerio reseller advisory board and partner portal. This program earned the company awards for its success by creating a marketplace and ecosystem that allowed its resellers to communicate and grow their businesses. Ciampaglio has also worked for Verizon, Aegis Communications and MBNA America.
"FireHost's trajectory path is what every company hopes to attain. It's an exciting point in time for this company and I'm honored to be a part of the FireHost success story," said Jim Ciampaglio. "Everyone here has a driving passion to make FireHost the best hosting company for our customers and I look forward to helping introduce the FireHost brand into new channels and markets across the globe."
FireHost announced its official launch into Europe last month with secure cloud hosting services now available through data centers in London and Amsterdam. Top enterprises including Fortune 50 companies trust FireHost to secure their websites and applications, including Johnson & Johnson, Hamilton Beach, Farmers Insurance Group, and Viking. FireHost is known for blocking millions of hack attempts per month against high-target, mission critical companies, and was the first hosting provider to deliver a totally secure, PCI DSS 2.0 compliant public cloud offering.
FireHost is hiring to fill roles in R&D, marketing & sales, customer support, and operations. A full list of job opportunities can be found on the company's website.
