EMC Corporation has announced that EMC veteran and Vice Chairman Bill Teuber will take on additional corporate-wide responsibilities for EMC as a member of the Office of the Chairman. In his new role, Teuber will focus on strategy and business development in emerging markets, assist with government relations and work closely with the Board of Directors. In addition, Teuber will continue his sponsorship of EMC’s largest customer accounts and work with Chairman and CEO Joe Tucci and EMC’s executive team to develop future leaders.

The company also appointed EMC veteran executive Bill Scannell to lead EMC’s Global Sales & Customer Operations, a role formerly held by Bill Teuber.

EMC also announced new sales leadership for the Americas, Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and Asia Pacific and Japan (APJ) regions. John Hanlon, previously EMC leader for U.S. Commercial business, will assume responsibility for sales and customer operations in the Americas. European native Adrian McDonald, previously EMC leader for EMEA North, will assume responsibility for sales and customer operations across all of EMEA. New Zealand native David Webster, previously leader for Australia, New Zealand and Southeast Asia, will assume responsibility for sales and customer operations in Asia Pacific and Japan. Webster succeeds Steve Leonard, who takes a new role focused on further building out EMC’s presence in emerging markets, after growing EMC APJ sales from $1.1 billion in 2006 to $2.6 billion in 2011. Leonard will remain based in Asia and continue to report directly to Teuber in the Office of the Chairman. Joe Eazor, who previously oversaw EMC’s global customer accounts and OEMs, will assume additional responsibility as COO, Global Sales & Customer Operations, focusing on sales strategy and managing key global sales functions to support growth.
