About Chloe

An unashamed book nerd who loves working in a digital world, Chloe came to her career in B2B technology via a history degree believing the Internet to be the Guttenberg Press of the 21st Century.
Starting out in channel marketing for first Micorosoft and then Vodafone, Chloe left behind the corporate behemoths for the lure of the start up journey, joining a small cloud hosting start up called Wirehive in 2013 as employee number seven.
Throughout her time at Wirehive Chloe rose to become Managing Partner overseeing three major business pivots creating the go to market and branding strategy behind the business transforming to become a multi-cloud reseller, then cloud consultancy and finally Microsoft cloud distributor. Alongside these strategic commercial initiatives Chloe took lead on the People function in 2018, building out the tools and programmes to scale and sustain a modern flat structure and values driven culture.
Chloe joined Pax8 when they acquired Wirehive in January 2021. As VP of Operations she is responsible for ensuring the new Pax8 UK entity has the structure and systems in place to give our rapidly growing team the clarity and confidence to use their unique talents to best serve our partners at scale with speed and in a meaningful collaboration with their colleagues. Her current goal is nothing short of enabling people to do the best work of their lives here.
