LONDON – ITRS, a leading provider of IT solutions for real-time monitoring and visibility, today announces the appointment of Ryan Terpstra as CEO. Terpstra succeeds Guy Warren, who has decided to leave the executive position to spend more time with his family, after successfully leading the company for more than a decade.

Terpstra brings more than two decades of C-level experience to leading and growing technology companies, venture capital startups, private equity-backed firms, and global public companies.

Terpstra joined ION Group after acquiring Selerity, where he was founder and CEO for over 10 years. During his time at Selerity and ION Group, Terpstra specialized in building and selling high-end AI products, making him well-positioned to grow and develop ITRS’s existing AIOps skill set.

With Terpstra at the helm, ITRS is poised to continue to strengthen its offering to new and existing customers through new product launches and targeted M&A. Terpstra is backed by ITRS shareholders and Montagu and TA Associates, who remain committed to supporting the company’s growth in the coming years.

Commenting on his appointment, Terpstra said: “I am delighted to be joining a world-class organization like ITRS. Our customers are complex and demanding, and use the critical IT infrastructure that supports the global economy. Trusted by thousands of customers around the world across many industries means we have a vital role to play in ensuring that this economy stays open.

“The support of the world’s leading investors, combined with the highly skilled professionals at ITRS, puts us in a good position to continue doing our work.”

Since joining ITRS as CEO in 2014, Guy Warren has transformed the business into a $100m revenue platform and expanded the company’s global footprint. He remains a significant shareholder and will continue to support the business in an advisory capacity.

Reflecting on his time at ITRS, Warren said: “I have thoroughly enjoyed building ITRS into the business it is today. My gratitude goes to all our partners, investors who have supported us, and customers who have shown us strong loyalty. I know ITRS is in safe hands with Ryan taking over.”

Terpstra added: “I want to thank Guy for his leadership and dedication to growing ITRS into the successful company it has become. I am honored to have the opportunity to continue his legacy and lead ITRS in its next chapter of growth.”
