HP has appointed a new managing director for Ireland, with Val Gabriel stepping into the role.
Mr Gabriel will take up the position immediately, taking over from Gary Tierney, who is retiring after more than 30 years with the business.
With 25 years of experience at HP, Mr Gabriel has held a number of leadership roles within the company.
He joined the company in 1997 as a manufacturing engineer, and has since held roles including product marketing manager and director of business management, and more recently was director of worldwide marketing for supplies in HP’s printing business and marketing vice president at HP.
“Ireland is already a strong and established market for HP, and I look forward to building on the brilliant results that the team has achieved over the last 50 years, particularly in the areas of sustainability, cybersecurity and hybrid working,” said Val Gabriel, managing director for Ireland.
Growth
“HP Inc. Ireland is positioned for strong growth with its wide range of product and solutions offerings addressing today’s customer needs, and I’m excited to work with our channel partners and customers to make this opportunity a reality.”
Neil Dover will continue in his role as Ireland sales lead and will be partnering closely with Mr Gabriel.
"We are thrilled to have Val assume the leadership role as managing director for HP Ireland. With Val's extensive leadership experience at HP, we're confident that he will be instrumental in progressing the continued growth of this highly strategic market," said Dave Prezzano, managing director for UK and Ireland.
“I would like to thank Gary for his exceptional contributions and for creating such strong foundations across the business with his leadership in Ireland over the years.”
