​Genesis, the first and only Low-Code / No-Code platform (LCNC) and solution provider for the financial markets, announced on Thursday the appointment of Billy Morris as Chief Financial Officer. Additionally, the company will launch officially a new office in Dublin in October.

In his new role, Morris will oversee Genesis’ financial operations and work in lockstep with the rest of the senior leadership team to drive and grow the company’s global financial and development strategy. He will report directly to Stephen Murphy, Genesis CEO, and will act as the founding tenant of the company’s new Dublin office.

Morris brings nearly two decades of leadership experience in finance, successfully assisting to scale various high-growth technology companies globally. He joined Genesis from ThousandEyes where he most recently served as VP of Finance, helping with the company’s M&A and Finance strategy which aided in its successful acquisition by technology conglomerate Cisco Systems. Prior to that, he worked as Finance Director at Twilio, helping lead the firm’s financial planning & analysis team, as well as various accounting & investor relations initiatives, including helping in the successful completion of the company’s Initial Public Offering.

“Morris’ proven leadership skills, financial expertise and passion for next-gen low-code/no-code innovation will play a key role as Genesis continues to build on its huge momentum,” said Stephen Murphy, CEO, Genesis. “Ireland is one of Europe’s fastest-growing regions, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to have Morris on the ground spearheading this latest chapter of our combined growth.”

The new office will initially house a portion of the company’s financial operations and business development teams, with plans to scale the operations and rapidly add headcount over the next 12 months.

Earlier in March, Fazzaco reported that Genesis has raised $45 million​ in series B funding.
