SAP on Tuesday announced that José Duarte is now president and CEO of the company’s Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) territory, while Rodolpho Cardenuto assumes the same role at SAP’s Latin America division.
The executives are respectively taking over responsibilities held by Erwin Gunst and Bill McDermott, both of whom SAP previously announced would be joining its executive board.
In addition to their executive board appointments, Gunst is now chief operating officer, SAP AG, and McDermott has become president and CEO of global field operations.
Duarte had been with SAP more than 15 years and most recently headed the Large Enterprise division in EMEA, according to a statement.
Cardenuto, meanwhile, arrives at SAP from Hewlett-Packard, where he served as director of industry sales and alliances for Latin America and the Caribbean, SAP said.
