Subscription billing fintech Recurly names Joe Rohrlich as CEO
Recurly, a US-based subscription management and billing platform, has appointed Joe Rohrlich as its new CEO.
An “accomplished” executive with more than two decades of work experience, Rohrlich joins Recurly from Top Hat, a US-based higher education engagement platform, where he served as CEO for nearly three years. Before that, he worked in a number of senior positions at software firm Bazaarvoice for 11 years, most recently serving as its chief revenue officer. There, he was responsible for realising a tenfold revenue growth for the firm.
Commenting on his new role, Rohrlich says he will be tasked with building on Recurly’s “position of strength and leading its next phase of growth”. The company adds that Rohrlich will be responsible for ensuring Recurly delivers on its strategic objectives and provides value to all its stakeholders.
Founded in 2009 and headquartered in San Francisco, Recurly provides an integrated platform that automates subscription billing, enabling teams to “manage and optimise” their subscriber lifecycles. It claims to serve “thousands” of companies across digital media, streaming, publishing, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and other industries, managing “billions of dollars” in recurring revenues.
