FlexITy Solutions Welcomes Shane Warnez to its Leadership Team

FlexITy Solutions Inc. recently expanded its leadership team with the appointment of industry expert Shane Warnez as Vice President of Sales and Operations for FlexITy's Western Canadian offices.

Shane holds more than 30 years of experience in IT. His integrity, leadership skills and engineering knowledge played a crucial role in helping FlexITy to take this appointment decision.

Peter Stavropoulos, CEO and president of FlexITy, said, "We will value his insight, strength in building partnerships and years of experience as we expand our strategies and vision for our western offices. It is terrific to be able to welcome him onboard."

In his new role as the Vice President of Sales and Operations for FlexITy's Western Canadian offices, Warnez will be leading all aspects of Business Development, Sales Execution, Client Relationships and Operations.

He will also be responsible for building internal and external stakeholder alignment across field sales, sales support and delivery to identify business opportunities that drive high value outcomes for FlexITy customers.

Based in FlexITy's Winnipeg Manitoba offices, Warnez will focus on helping Western Canadian clients benefit from new cloud-based technologies, managed services and data centre solutions.

"To achieve Cisco's HCS designation we committed to a lengthy and rigorous process as well as third-party auditing of our services and solutions," Stavropoulos added. "With this designation, not only have we added our name to a short list of elite partners considered by Cisco to be best-in-class, but we are able to offer the most flexible and scalable cloud services designed to help customers achieve faster time-to-value through superior levels of service, security, and 24-hour support.”

The FlexITy team is Cisco Gold certified, Master Managed Services Certified, SSAE16 SOC Type 1 and Type 2 compliant as well as have CPIC Level 2 Government Security Clearance.

"I am delighted to have the opportunity to join FlexITy," Warnez said. "My decision to join the FlexITy team was heavily influenced by FlexITy's commitment to and investment in Western Canada. I have always been impressed by their deep engineering strengths, high standards and disciplined approach to building out tightly integrated and market-driven customer solutions."
