Visual Lease announced the appointment of Amie Durr as Senior Vice President of Product. In her role, Durr will lead and enable product innovation, ensuring that Visual Lease continues to support organizations' evolving business needs by strengthening their lease accounting and administration processes, while expanding its integration capabilities. This addition to Visual Lease's executive team marks the first strategic leadership hire made by newly appointed CEO Robert Michlewicz.
“At Visual Lease, we are committed to providing organizations with the most comprehensive platform, expert services and robust partner community to master lease accounting compliance while achieving visibility, insights and expanded controls over their lease portfolios,” said Michlewicz. “Amie has the experience, customer-first approach, passion and innovative outlook that will ensure we continue to deliver against our commitment, while simultaneously scaling with our growing customer base.'
Prior to joining Visual Lease, Durr was the Vice President of Product Management at SparkPost, where she was responsible for products delivering nearly 40 percent of all commercial email. Her leadership in product innovation, strategic planning, team development and execution was integral to SparkPost's success and ability to integrate into its customers' complex environments. Durr's contributions were a driving force behind MessageBird's acquisition of SparkPost for $600 million in 2021.
“I am thrilled to join the Visual Lease team,” said Durr. “I believe tech companies should champion the voice of both the customer and the market, which is a big reason why I decided to join VL. This company does a tremendous job of helping organizations address today's business needs while anticipating future demands. I look forward to working alongside Robert and the rest of the leadership team to further elevate the value that we are bringing to our customers and strategic partners.”
This addition to Visual Lease's leadership team comes on the heels of a strong second quarter for the organization, during which it achieved nearly 30 percent growth in annual recurring revenue and 40 percent growth in customer count, year-over-year.
