Collibra Strengthens Executive Leadership Team to Support Continued Company Growth

Collibra, the Data Intelligence company, today announced the appointment of Stuart Wilson to chief revenue officer and Aileen Black to senior vice president of public sector, a newly-created role.

“Our organization has evolved significantly as we’ve grown from a startup to the global leader in Data Intelligence,” said Felix Van de Maele, co-founder and CEO of Collibra. “As Data Intelligence becomes increasingly central to business operations, it is key that we continue to cultivate a strong leadership team that can drive our next phase forward. I’m excited to collaborate with Stuart and Aileen as we help organizations understand the value of their data in making critical business decisions.”

An experienced global sales leader, Stuart joins Collibra from Alteryx, where he led regional sales teams through six years of record revenue growth. As Alteryx’s first employee in EMEA, Stuart built the company’s EMEA sales engine to $100 million in ARR and through an IPO. Focused on scalability and operationalization, he drove expansion methodologies, enabled sellers and sales leaders, and honed in on efficiency at scale. Stuart also led Latin America and strategic accounts business in North America for the $11 billion market cap company. Prior to Alteryx, Stuart built and led the first EMEA sales team at Proofpoint and led the UK enterprise business at Sophos. He holds an MBA from Ivey Business School at Western University and a bachelor’s degree in communications from the University of British Columbia.
