“Steven brings a mix of experience, industry knowledge and passion to OEM,” says Jack McSorley, OEM Corporation founder and Chief Executive Officer. “It’s a rare combination and the team is looking forward to new developments and partnerships going forward.”
With over a decade of sales experience in the Canadian IT channel, Adams brings experience within this market for both acquisition and sale opportunities. A significant part of his new role will be to attract wholesale partners to participate in OEM sales programs. As a full-service ITAD (Information Technology Asset Disposition) company, OEM remarkets more than 90 percent of end-of-life IT equipment that it processes, diverting it from landfill.
“I was immediately attracted to OEM’s industry approach, foresight and appetite to reuse versus recycle,” says Adams. “Creating a smart, sustainable business while supporting a wide range of community initiatives is a worthy challenge. Believing in what the business does from both an environmental and technology standpoint makes OEM a great fit for me as I help drive the company’s continued growth.”
Prior to OEM, Adams ran his own Managed Print consultancy, Thames Technology Inc., and held senior sales positions with Lexmark Technology and Ricoh Canada.
The hiring comes on the heels of OEM’s partnership with reBOOT Canada to deliver essential technology to underserved Canadians through a unique partnership that will donate up to $750,000 over three years.
