In her new role at Bandwidth, McLachlan will lead the company's global revenue organization, including enterprise sales, channel and partner strategy, account management, and solutions engineering. She will focus on scaling Bandwidth's direct-to-enterprise motion, expanding strategic partnerships, and driving broader adoption of Bandwidth's AI-driven Communications Cloud.
