Ramp, a leading New York-based spend management fintech, has made significant leadership moves, announcing the promotion of three key executives to key roles. These strategic changes are set to accelerate the company’s ambitious plans for growth and market expansion.
New Leadership Roles
The promotions include Will Petrie, who takes on the role of Chief Financial Officer (CFO), Geoff Charles, now serving as Chief Product Officer (CPO), and Nik Koblov, promoted to Executive Vice President (EVP) of Engineering. Each of these leaders brings a wealth of experience and a proven track record of driving Ramp’s success in their respective fields.
Will Petrie, who joined Ramp in 2022 as VP of strategic finance, is recognized for his instrumental role in expanding the company’s contribution profit and securing nearly $1 billion in financing over the past two years. His efforts led to Ramp’s successful $150 million Series D-2 funding round in April, a milestone that boosted the company’s valuation to $7.65 billion.
Geoff Charles, Ramp’s former VP of products, is now responsible for leading the development and launch of over 150 new products annually. With his deep experience as a limited partner at Rally Cap Ventures, Charles will drive Ramp’s product innovation and enhance its market offerings.
Nik Koblov, who has been with Ramp for five years, has played a critical role in scaling the company’s engineering team. From a small group to a powerhouse of hundreds of talented engineers, Koblov’s leadership will continue to drive Ramp’s technological excellence.
According to Ramp’s co-founders, Eric Glyman and Karim Atiyeh, these promotions reflect their commitment to nurturing internal talent. The leadership trio will now play a crucial role in executing Ramp’s ambitious roadmap for 2025, which includes expanding its product suite and venturing into new markets. A key part of this plan is the launch of Ramp Treasury, a cash management solution that offers a 2.5% yield on business funds, all within the same platform used to pay bills.
As Ramp looks toward the future, these leadership changes position the company to continue its growth trajectory and redefine the future of spend management.
