Andre Sabian named Chief Commercial Officer in Experteq move
Experteq has appointed Andre Sabian as its new Chief Commercial Officer as part of changes to its senior leadership team.
Andre Sabian, who has more than 20 years of experience in the IT and technology sectors, will immediately join Experteq's executive management as he takes over from Pat Murphy, who is preparing to move into the Chief Executive Officer role later this month.
Sabian's most recent position was General Manager at IT solutions firm Aquion. His previous roles have included senior positions at CDM, cubesys, and Data#3. His career has focused on sales, channel partnerships and senior management functions. Industry peers associate Sabian with building strong teams, developing strategic partnerships, leading product initiatives, and consistently delivering commercial objectives.
Leadership transition
Experteq's leadership update is part of the company's efforts to strengthen its position in the Australian managed and professional services market for highly regulated sectors. The company has highlighted the upcoming CEO change, with Pat Murphy stepping into the role, while Sabian fills the CCO position vacated by Murphy.
In a statement, Pat Murphy commented on the appointment, describing his confidence in Sabian's capabilities:
"We're delighted to welcome Andre to Experteq. His leadership experience is widely recognised across the industry, and I'm confident he will make a significant impact at Experteq and with our clients and partners. His experience and proven track record in building, modernising, and leading commercial operations will play a pivotal role as we enter our next phase of growth and evolution."
Organisational focus
Experteq has underlined its intent to enhance both market presence and the value delivered to its clients and partners, with Sabian's appointment seen as central to this strategy. The company, which has operated for over 30 years, delivers IT and business solutions to clients in highly regulated sectors, with services spanning modern workplace, cloud, infrastructure, security, and more.
Sabian addressed his new role at Experteq by stating:
"I am thrilled to be joining such a dynamic, modern IT services company at such an exciting stage of its growth. Experteq has an impressive 30-year plus legacy in delivering secure, scalable and transformative solutions to clients in highly regulated sectors. I look forward to further building on this legacy, working with the Experteq team to expand our offerings, deepen our partnerships and continue to deliver an outstanding service to our clients while we strive to keep them ahead in their digital transformation journeys."
Industry background
Sabian is recognised for supporting growth through an emphasis on commercial outcomes and partnership development, which industry observers believe aligns with Experteq's longstanding commitment to security and compliance in sectors with stringent regulatory requirements.
The leadership changes will see Sabian succeed Murphy in the Chief Commercial Officer role, with Murphy scheduled to officially become Chief Executive Officer on 18 September 2025. The company anticipates both appointments will support continued expansion and the ongoing delivery of its services to clients in demanding sectors.
