David Borg, general manager of office supplier Fuji Xerox Printers Asia and Pacific, is leaving the company after 24 years.
Borg became GM for Australia and New Zealand in 2009 after 16 years with the company in various roles from direct sales, to channel management and sales management. Earlier this year, he was appointed GM Channels – Asia Pacific for Fuji Xerox Printers covering the entire Asia Pacific Region, outside of China / Japan. He was responsible for general management across sales, marketing and channel operations.
The company has made no announcement but in a blog post, Borg wrote that he would be leaving his job tomorrow.
“Back in 1993, I responded to an advertisement in the newspaper to join the Xerox sales academy. I can still remember it clearly - it was a Superman flying up the side of a building with a fax machine tucked under one arm.
“24 years and literally several hundred thousand printers later, an amazing set of relationships, an education that is invaluable and cultural exposure across 12 countries. Fuji Xerox has been a wonderful company to work for and the impact it had has been life-changing.
“But like everything, there comes a point where it’s time to take on new challenges and as such my last day with Fuji Xerox is Thursday 30th November, and I will be sharing my exciting new projects 1st December, 2017.
“A big thank you to the management team that believed in me and invested in me…an even bigger thank you to all the team members I have worked with over these years…my most sincere thank you goes to the hundreds of channel partners that have supported our business - this would be undoubtedly the area that taught me the most about the fundamentals of business.”
