Smartsheet Hires Chief Financial Officer To Support Rapid Growth

Silicon Valley Veteran Bolsters Leadership Team as Demand for the Company’s Work Management and Process Automation Solution Soars

BELLEVUE, Wash. – September 15, 2016 – Smartsheet, the world’s leading SaaS platform for managing collaborative work and automating work processes, today announced the addition of Jennifer Ceran as the company’s chief financial officer. Ceran, who most recently served as CFO of Quotient Technology Inc. (NYSE: QUOT, formerly Coupons.com), previously was the VP of Finance at Box and Ebay/PayPal, and prior to that was Director of Corporate Finance at Cisco. Ceran has frequently been recognized by Treasury and Risk Management Magazine as one of the “100 Most Influential People in Finance.” At Smartsheet she will lead the company’s Finance, Legal and IT operations.

This news comes on the heels of Smartsheet’s recognition by Forbes, in its inaugural “Cloud 100” listing, as a one of the world’s top 100 private cloud companies.

“Smartsheet’s rapid growth stems from the fact that today’s highly-collaborative work requires the adoption of enterprise-grade solutions with next-gen capabilities,” said Mark Mader, president and CEO of Smartsheet. “To further accelerate growth and to help lead our long-term strategy, we added a proven veteran with a successful track record supporting large, high-growth efforts. Jenny has a superb blend of experience that will help take our business to the next level.”

Smartsheet achieved more than 70 percent year-over-year revenue growth for the fifth consecutive year, and has seen greater than triple-digit growth in enterprises paying more than $100,000 in annual subscription value. Over half of the Fortune 500, and 70 percent of both Forbes “The World's Most Innovative Companies” and Fortune 100 companies use Smartsheet. A selection of notable enterprise customers added thus far in 2016 include Ogilvy & Mather Worldwide Inc, Airbus Group N.V., Lexmark International, Carnival Corporation and Urban Outfitters Inc.

“I couldn’t imagine a more exciting time to join Smartsheet,” said Ceran. “Mark and his team have paved the way for massive disruption in the collaborative work management market, and the opportunity for continued growth and impact is substantial. That, along with the many talented and passionate people I’ve already met at Smartsheet have given me even more confidence in the business and its potential.”
