“We fully support Bob’s decision to invest time with his family, but it’s impossible to replace him. His commitment to Conga as a CFO and culture champion is unmatched,” Noel Goggin, CEO at Conga, said in a written statement. “As Conga continues to grow and evolve as the global Revenue Lifecycle leader, Simon will ease the transition and be a natural fit for Conga. His extensive experience, combined with the expertise and operational rigor cultivated during his time with GE, make him an invaluable addition to our organization.”
