As Onica’s new VP of Customer Strategy for Canada, MacKay will help Canadian enterprises adopt cloud-native technologies to drive innovation
TORONTO – May 2, 2019 – Onica, a Premier Consulting Partner in the AWS Partner Network (APN) and Managed Service Provider, today announced that David MacKay has joined the company as VP of Customer Strategy for Canada. MacKay is an established leader in the IT consulting industry with more than 20 years of experience bringing progressive technologies to the Canadian market. MacKay will leverage Onica’s local resources and expertise, along with assistance from the US market, to help Canadian enterprises adopt cloud-native thinking and technologies.
“We see increased demand and opportunities for innovative cloud services in Canada,” says Goran (Kima) Kimovski, SVP of Global Customer Solutions at Onica. “We are expanding our investment in the Canadian market by hiring David, an experienced leader who shares our passion for the cloud and AWS. He will help scale Onica’s business by leveraging our success to bring new cloud services and capabilities to the Canadian market.”
MacKay joins Onica from Slalom Consulting where he focused on building the company’s AWS strategy for Canada. His extensive experience, vast knowledge of the AWS ecosystem, and established relationships across Canada will help Onica expand its market opportunity and increase adoption of AWS in Canada. He will be joining the Onica team at its new office at Yonge and King in Toronto.
“I look forward to working with the incredibly talented cloud professionals on the Onica team,” says MacKay. “There is also something special about being part of a world-class organization that has a Canadian chapter in their success story, and understands the importance of offering the right combination of experience and people who are passionate about helping Canadian companies innovate along their cloud journey.”
In August 2018, Onica acquired TriNimbus, a Canadian cloud computing pioneer and Canada’s first Premier Consulting Partner in the APN. The acquisition reinforced each organization’s ongoing commitment to their respective relationships with AWS, and in turn, established Onica as one of the biggest AWS focused consultancies and managed service providers in North America.
