And Expanded Executive Roles for James Lawton, Claire Rutkowski, and Suzanne Little
(BUSINESS WIRE) -- Bentley Systems, Incorporated (Nasdaq: BSY), the infrastructure engineering software company, today announced that Michael Campbell has been appointed chief product officer
and will lead more than 1,500 colleagues in the company’s product
advancement group. Campbell joins Bentley from product engineering
software leader PTC Inc. (Nasdaq: PTC), where he has spent his whole
career since earning his mechanical engineering degree from Boston
University in 1995. He has had product leadership responsibility for
PTC’s mainstream design applications and for its IoT acquisitions, and
most recently served as executive vice president and general manager for
its augmented reality offerings. Campbell will be responsible for
defining Bentley’s product strategy and for managing product development
to advance the company’s leadership in infrastructure engineering
software. He will report to Chief Operating Officer Nicholas Cumins.
Cumins said, “Mike brings to Bentley his vast experience of software innovation at PTC, and a unique perspective on the evolution of engineering software applications to incorporate cloud services. We share a belief that infrastructure engineering can learn from product engineering’s advancements in going digital, including leveraging digital twins and industrializing digital workflows.”
Expanded Executive Responsibilities
Following
its IPO in 2020 after 36 years, Bentley Systems anticipates naturally
continuing executive retirements, accelerating opportunities for
significant internal promotions.
James Lawton has been named to the newly created role of chief digital officer. Lawton joined Bentley with the acquisition of geosciences software company Seequent in 2021. He will lead Bentley’s digital experience strategy, as well as the IT organization, shaping and delivering a seamless experience for Bentley’s users and colleagues across all digital touch points.
Claire Rutkowski, after six years as chief information officer, is now SVP, CIO champion, leading solutions and advocacy for engineering firms, who contribute slightly more than half of Bentley’s annual recurring revenue. Rutkowski joined Bentley in 2016 from the position of CIO at major infrastructure engineering firm Stantec/MWH.
Suzanne Little has been promoted to the newly created role of chief colleague success officer, as Chief Talent Officer Florence Zheng has become an adviser, for organizational succession, to Bentley’s board. Little will lead Bentley’s global HR functions and teams, along with expanded responsibility for enhancing the overall colleague experience.
