Misys subsidiary Summit Systems has appointed Kathy Perrotte as chief operating officer, Tom Dalglish as director of technical services for the Americas and Tim Hudson as sales executive.
Perrotte, who co-founded Summit in 1990, returns to the firm after a year long sabbatical and will be based in New York. She previously served in a range of technical and business capacities, most recently as managing director of consulting services.
In his new role, Dalglish will be responsible for technical pre-sales, client support and training. His background includes a ten-year stint at Merrill Lynch in New York and London, where he served as a developer, program manager and VP. He brings particular expertise in distributed systems, analytic processes and market data.
Dalglish assumes the role formerly held by Jane Foo, the newly appointed director of Summit's release management group. Her new duties include responsibility for all product release planning and management tasks, quality assurance, documentation, and software deliveries.
Hudson previously spent four years at RiskMetrics where he developed the Italian market for the firm. Prior to this he worked for three years at the investor services division of S&P's Ratings Group.
