In his new role, Rosica (pictured) will be responsible for the day-to-day management of all Avid’s customer-facing functions around the world, including sales, marketing, professional services, services delivery and customer support.

The president role was previously part of chief executive Louis Hernandez’s remit.

Before joining Avid, Agle served as an operating advisor at private equity firm Francisco Partners.
