Drift, the Conversation Cloud company, announced that Andrew Arocha joined the company as chief revenue officer (CRO). A veteran of Oracle and Adobe, Arocha will be responsible for leading Drift’s global sales organization and driving company growth.
“I am thrilled to join Drift at such an exciting stage and take the sales team to the next level—something I’ve done for other fast-growing tech companies over the course of my career,” said Arocha. “I’ve witnessed first-hand the monumental advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning and know the market is ripe for Drift to capitalize. I can’t wait to roll up my sleeves in service of Drift’s incredible team and work with my counterparts across the company to grow Drift’s entire revenue system.”

In each of his past roles, Arocha has been instrumental in helping companies realize their digital experience goals and will apply that same legacy at Drift.

I look forward to working alongside Andrew, to harness the power of conversation and transform the way businesses buy from businesses.”
Arocha’s appointment as CRO comes shortly after Drift announced Scott Ernst as its new CEO and paves the way for the company’s next phase of growth as the leading conversational experience platform for B2B businesses. In the last year, Drift reached a valuation of over $1 billion, serving 5,000+ customers and 600 employees with a presence in six global locations.
