Warren Kempt, Information Technology and Services

Hi, I'm Warren. I help the largest organisations in the world with their digital transformation.

Warren Kempt's Bio:

Warren Kempt – Strategic Sales Leader | CMS & DAM Specialist | Former Soldier Turned SaaS Executive Warren Kempt is a seasoned sales leader with a track record of delivering complex, high-value technology solutions to some of the world’s biggest media and publishing brands. With over 20 years of experience spanning enterprise software, ad tech, marketing automation, and telecommunications, Warren is known for his ability to shorten long sales cycles, lead with insight, and build trusted relationships across C-suites. Currently the Sales Manager for the UK, Ireland, and Nordics at Stibo DX, Warren spearheads business development for enterprise-grade CMS and DAM platforms. His consultative and value-driven approach has helped secure multi-million-euro contracts through both direct engagements and competitive public tenders. Under his leadership, Stibo DX has strengthened its positioning as a trusted transformation partner for major broadcasters and newsrooms across Europe. Prior to this, Warren was Sales Lead for Movable Ink in the Benelux region, where he exceeded targets by closing deals with high-profile brands like Adidas, Booking.com, and WWF. At Appier, a Taiwanese unicorn, he played a foundational role in launching their European operations—achieving $1M in ARR and establishing best-in-class sales practices across global teams. Warren’s earlier career includes standout roles at RTB House, Criteo, and Pure360, where he combined deep technical understanding with commercial agility to win key accounts like New Look, Skyscanner, and Halfords. He built new verticals from the ground up, managed teams, and executed GTM strategies that delivered consistent revenue growth. But Warren’s leadership story starts even earlier. A former Squad Leader in the US Army, he rose from Private to Specialist, leading four fire teams through tactical operations and earning top honors along the way. This formative experience laid the foundation for his resilience, focus, and sense of duty—qualities that continue to shape his approach in business today. His early sales success began in telecoms, selling complex hardware systems and securing a £1M self-generated deal while still in his 20s. From door-to-door selling in London to managing multi-country SaaS portfolios, Warren has developed a rare blend of grit, empathy, and commercial acumen. In addition to his career, Warren holds a Certificate of Higher Education in Leadership from HarvardX, a Business Contract Law qualification, and a CPD diploma in Digital Marketing. He remains deeply interested in negotiation, market psychology, and the ever-evolving relationship between tech and media. Warren thrives in high-stakes, high-integrity environments where relationship-building, technical credibility, and long-term impact are key. Whether leading a demo, building consensus across stakeholder groups, or navigating complex procurement, Warren brings clarity, purpose, and momentum to every interaction.
