Staines, UK – June 3, 2025 — Pure Storage (NYSE: PSTG),  the IT pioneer that delivers the world’s most advanced data storage technology and services, today announced Paddy Fitzpatrick as the new Regional Vice President for UK and Ireland (UK&I). Based in the UK, Fitzpatrick will lead the regional business, focusing on strengthening customer and partner relationships across the UK&I markets and driving growth. 

With over three decades of experience working with some of the world’s largest technology companies, most recently at AWS, where he served in a leadership role focusing on enterprise software and SaaS, Fitzpatrick brings a deep understanding of customer needs and a track record of scaling high-performance teams. Fitzpatrick will oversee Pure’s continued growth in the region and support customers in maximising the value of the Pure Storage Platform.

Industry significance

Fitzpatrick’s appointment comes at a pivotal moment as businesses need to prioritise storing, managing, accessing and protecting their data. Fragmented storage, manual processes, and lack of visibility lead to compliance risks, rising costs, and growing complexity. As data volumes and workload demands surge, so do the risks of security breaches, operational inefficiencies, and missed business opportunities due to slow insights and limited agility.

Pure Storage is uniquely positioned to address these challenges by providing customers with a new architectural approach that eliminates silos, reduces risk, and enables intelligent, policy-driven control across all environments – enabling customers to shift their focus from infrastructure to outcomes. This unified architecture allows IT to manage, protect, and optimise data dynamically, no matter where it lives, unlocking faster insights and lowering costs.

Executive Insight

“Paddy is a proven leader with a sharp focus on customers and a deep understanding of the enterprise landscape. His appointment reflects our continued investment in the UK&I market and our unwavering commitment to delivering exceptional outcomes for both our customers and partners.”
