Meet The Team

Niels brings a passion for unlocking business value and solving commercial challenges with technology. Having led some of the world’s largest Salesforce consulting practices at IBM and Capgemini he has deep expertise in how robust and elegantly architected solutions like Breadwinner can unleash business value for customers of every size. When not working, Niels spends his time being outmaneuvered on every front by his three wonderful kids.

Timea is part of our Sales team, letting companies know all about Breadwinner. She ‘fell into’ sales and fell in love with the rollercoaster of emotions it brings every day. In her spare time, Timea is active and enjoys bodybuilding and dancing. She represented the UK in the World Hip Hop Championships in 2017! She loves dogs, especially her own pup Sushi.

Gerhard joined the Breadwinner team in 2018 as one of our Solutions Engineers, helping customers to implement and truly get the most from Breadwinner. In his downtime, Gerhard can be found in the mountains. He’s an avid endurance athlete, with two New York marathons under his belt as well as a casual cycle across the whole of the United States.

Breadwinner was born from Stony’s own personal frustration in the lack of connections between Xero and Salesforce. Stony’s role includes working closely with partners, ISVs, Salesforce, and more. His background includes 4 years running a Salesforce Consulting company and building other Salesforce Apps. In his downtime, he enjoys hiking through the French mountains and being very discerning about coffee.

Jake joined Breadwinner in 2023 with a SaaS product & content marketing background. He has a love for copywriting, brand design, SEO, and a verging-on-unhealthy obsession with spreadsheets. When he takes off his marketing hat, Jake’s passions include Muay Thai & MMA, movies & video games, the works of Tolkien, mountain hiking, and spending far too much money on Lego!

Mike works with the development team in multiple capacities to help drive the Breadwinner products forward.  He has over 10 years of Salesforce development experience and more years than he cares to mention outside of the Salesforce ecosystem.  When not working, Mike spends his time coaching his kids’ sports teams, hiking with the family, and going on long bike rides when the weather permits.

Jo co-founded the company with Stony. As CFO, Jo is responsible for making sure that our finances are in tip-top shape. Jo’s background includes an Accountancy Degree and working at a Venture Capital Fund. In her free time, she loves to sail and is an avid skier and has come up with several well-thought-out, rational reasons why all board meetings should be held at Chamonix during the winter months.

Brian joined the team first as a customer and now as a Sr. Engineer. Having worked for companies like Dell and Quest, he is a seasoned “enterprise technology swiss army knife” and can solve technical problems by leering at electronics, just as a Jedi would. Brian is 6’9″, but doesn’t play basketball as he was “jipped out of the remaining 3 inches”. He revolted by playing water polo and is now an avid cyclist and triathlete.

Chidambar is the Technical Lead for Breadwinner. His work includes turning business requirements into technical guidelines for developers. Chidambar is fluent in multiple programming languages and always welcomes new challenges. He travels like a curiosity rover and photography is one of his hobbies. He also loves trekking, conversations about Space, mind-boggling movies, and philosophy. 

Chad is a member of our Sales team. He loves working with customers to explore how Breadwinner can make their lives easier. His background is primarily in sales across B2B software and FinTech. Away from work, Chad can be found outside with his two dogs in tow, usually enjoying a hike, riding his bike, or trying to keep the weeds from taking over his garden.

Diana joined the team early on in 2017 and heads our marketing strategies. Diana’s background includes a Marketing degree from California and working for a film distribution company in London. Traveling is one of her great joys and living in London helps her to accomplish this quickly. When not working, you can find her playing in the sea and eating her way through Europe.
