Congrats to HPA Member Bill Watkins for being announced as the new CRO at Pinterest!

Bill most recently was responsible for the Mid Market & Small Business Sales teams across North America, LATAM, EMEA, and APAC. His career involves nearly two decades in the technology sector, with a focus on digital media.

In 2014, Bill joined Pinterest as one of the first 250 employees, and founded the Pinterest Chicago office. Having joined the company pre-monetization, Bill recruited and hired the initial sales team, developed sales and go-to-market strategies that launched ads monetization on Pinterest, and helped to grow the company’s business through the IPO.

Congrats Bill on this exciting role in your career! We are so grateful to have you as a Member of HPA.
