New executive appointments at Orro

Orro has announced two new executive appointments, bolstering the company’s leadership team.

Following the acquisition of longstanding security partner RIOT Solutions in May 2022, the company has appointed RIOT CEO Rob Merkwitza as Chief Strategy Officer (CSO). He will develop the organisation’s growth strategy in collaboration with CEO Rodd Cunico and COO Daniel Greengarten.

Merkwitza will be responsible for driving collaboration across the business’s product and services portfolio, incorporating cybersecurity, marketing, technology and product management functions.

In addition, former RIOT Solutions Chief Technology Officer (CTO) Michael van Rooyen has been appointed CTO of Networks. With outstanding knowledge and expertise in network design and technology, van Rooyen will drive the progress of the company’s technology offering. Encouraging innovative solutions across all areas of the business, van Rooyen will play a critical role in driving Orro’s technology roadmap in 2023.

“We have seen the heightened demand for secure network solutions rise, and the appointments of Rob Merkwitza and Michael van Rooyen will ensure Orro delivers the right solutions to the Australian market,” Cunico said.

“The restructure comes with great opportunities for Orro as we align our capabilities to the needs of our customers, both now and in the future. The strategic leadership from both Rob and Michael will be a big step forward for Orro, enabling our sustainable growth across the IT sector.”
