Dell's former channel boss Mullen takes new role at Insight

Former Dell channel boss Joyce Mullen has been appointed North American boss at reseller giant Insight.

Mullen announced her departure from Dell in July after a 21-year spell with the vendor, claiming at the time that she wanted to "move on to new challenges". She left in mid-August.

Insight has now confirmed that Mullen will head up its North American business as president.

"We have found an exceptional leader to take our North America business into the future," said CEO Ken Lamneck

"In addition to her engaging leadership style, far-reaching expertise in technology services and solutions, and sales acumen, Joyce has established strong relationships within our organisation which will facilitate a quick assimilation into our business."

Insight said that Mullen's appointment "underscores its commitment to diversity and inclusion".

Mullen held a number of senior roles before becoming channel boss in 2017.

A filing with the SEC revealed she will earn a base salary of $600,000 and be eligible for "annual equity-based compensation awards with a value of $1bn".

Mullen also received $3m in shares for joining Insight, as well as a $500,000 relocation fee.

She said: "I couldn't be more excited by the opportunity to join this exceptional company.

"I've had a first-hand view of Insights' rapid transformation over the past few years, completing strategic acquisitions, broadening its solutions portfolio and scaling to serve more clients.

"However, the deciding factors for me in joining Insight were its strong solutions portfolio and its inclusive culture and values orientation."
