MobileIron, the security backbone for the multi-cloud enterprise, announced that its board of directors has appointed Chief Financial Officer Simon Biddiscombe as President, Chief Executive Officer, and member of the board. Mr. Biddiscombe’s appointment follows the mutual decision between the MobileIron board and CEO Barry Mainz that Mr. Mainz will leave the company. Mr. Biddiscombe’s appointment is effective immediately. Shawn Ayers, Vice President of Finance, will serve as interim CFO, and the company has opened a search to fill the CFO position.

Tae Hea Nahm, Chairman of MobileIron’s Board of Directors, said: “Simon is an experienced public company CEO who has excelled as a leader and driven significant operational improvement since he has joined the company. The board believes that under Simon’s leadership, MobileIron will deliver value to its shareholders by focusing on its key products and markets while ensuring the financial discipline that will strengthen profitability. On behalf of the MobileIron board, I want to thank Barry for his leadership. The progress we’ve made during his tenure has laid the foundation for MobileIron’s next stage of growth.”

Simon Biddiscombe has served as CFO of MobileIron since 2015 and has held numerous leadership positions including CEO and CFO of QLogic Corp., CFO at Mindspeed Technologies, and CFO and COO of Wyle Electronics.

“I’m honored and excited to lead MobileIron through its next phase of growth,” said Simon Biddiscombe, President, and CEO, MobileIron. “We believe we have the best products in the market and the right team to drive long-term growth and profitability. Over the last year, we’ve delivered critical innovations that should allow us to deepen our relationship with our customers. I look forward to leveraging our competitive advantage, strengthening our go-to-market execution, and driving improvements throughout our operations.”
