DRAPER, Utah, Nov. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BambooHR®, the leading People Intelligence Platform for small and mid-sized businesses, today announced the appointment of Derek Keller as Chief Revenue Officer. Keller will lead BambooHR’s global revenue organization, including sales, partnerships, and customer expansion, to drive the company’s continued growth.
Keller joins at a time of strong momentum for BambooHR. This year, the company introduced Bamboo AI™, an embedded system of AI agents and intelligence built into the platform. It also expanded Expert Services, giving customers direct access to in-house HR, payroll, and technical experts. As demand for the platform grows, BambooHR is entering new international markets, expanding its partner network, and deepening relationships with existing customers. Keller will guide how BambooHR brings the platform to those customers and partners.
“Derek pairs expertise in building a sales engine with a deep investment in the people who run it,” said Brad Rencher, CEO of BambooHR. “He has scaled sales, partner, and expansion teams, and has the results to back it up. Together with our team, Derek will help bring BambooHR to more businesses around the world and set more people free to do great work.”
Keller brings more than a decade of sales leadership experience at high-growth technology companies, including GoTo, LastPass, RingCentral, and Talkdesk. Most recently, Keller served as Senior Vice President of Global Sales and Partnerships at GoTo (formerly LogMeIn), where he led a global revenue organization of more than 250 people across sales, business development, and partner teams.
Throughout his career, Keller has focused on hiring, onboarding, and coaching sales talent, building self-reliant teams that can generate, close, and grow customer relationships on their own.
“BambooHR has built exactly what businesses are looking for in HR software: technology that’s easy to use, brings people data together in one place, and helps leaders make better decisions,” said Derek Keller, Chief Revenue Officer at BambooHR. “That matters more than ever as HR teams are pressured to drive results faster while growing their people at the same time. I’m excited to work with our teams to meet this demand by bringing BambooHR to new businesses, deepening the value it delivers for our customers, and making work better for millions of employees.”
