Jason Walker / Deputy

President, Americas

I’m a dreamer of “the way things can be,” and have a passion for finding simple and elegant solutions to complex problems by utilizing innovative technology.

A thought leader within the SaaS and retail industries, I’ve worked with some of the biggest brands you know, including Home Depot, HP, Best Buy, Target, Apple, and Nokia. With over 20 years of experience, my team has driven sales quotas exceeding $10 billion, reduced turnover by 54% and increased top line revenues by over 300% YoY through leading large scale business transformational efforts throughout North America. Behind it all was a focus on delivering phenomenal customer experiences.

Currently, I serve as President, Americas of Deputy, a leading cloud technology equally loved by managers and employees who want to take charge of work and life in the hourly economy. In this role, I lead Deputy’s North and South America service areas, overseeing marketing, business development, strategic partnerships and customer experience, to ensure Deputy can spread its awesome workforce management solution with the entire world.

When I’m not helping businesses transform the experience of hourly employment for the 21st century, you can find me somewhere in the outdoors fishing, biking and hiking or asking someone “why” for the hundred-bajillionth time.
