Tier1 appoints Megan Howe MD, North American sales

Howe will be responsible for driving compliance software and buy-side CRM sales in North America, delivering a range of client lifecycle management solutions.

Howe has over a decade’s worth of experience as an accomplished, ambitious software sales leader in the compliance and financial services industry. Before joining Tier1, Howe was Vice President of Sales at Oversight Systems, where she managed sales and client relationships for its fraud prevention and reporting solutions. Prior to this, Howe was a Senior Sales Leader at Paycom.

“I’m delighted to have Megan on board as Tier1’s Managing Director driving expansion of our Alessa compliance software and Satuit buy-side solution sales across North America,” said Tier1 Financial Solutions CEO, Jiro Okochi. “With her expertise in and knowledge of managing client relationships in the fraud prevention industry, Megan will be invaluable to propelling our compliance software suite across North America.”

“With financial and business operations becoming increasingly electronic and a wealth of data to track, regulatory authorities have remained stringent on compliance protocols, making it even more critical for firms to meet their obligations,” said Howe. “I’m excited to join the team at Tier1, who are connecting AML compliance and client relationship management, providing an efficient, seamless and compliant client experience.”

Megan Howe joins the Company just as Tier1 announced new equity financing from a group of investors led by Wavecrest Growth Partners and MassMutual Ventures. This latest investment in Tier1 coupled with Megan’s onboarding will help drive the next generation of connectivity between compliance workflows and the customer experience – enabling Tier1 clients to create integrated, end-to-end journeys efficiently, cost-effectively and reliably for their customers.
