Human resources (HR) technology company Bambee has hired as its new general counsel and chief strategy officer.
Most recently, Ferl was general counsel and vice president for strategy and corporate development at Poshmark during the company’s IPO. Before that, he spent more than a decade in senior in-house legal roles at HR and consumer technology companies such as VMware, SumTotal Systems (later acquired by CornerStone OnDemand) and Hired. He began his career working in the office of the chief counsel at NASA.
Allan Jones, Bambee’s founder and CEO, says in a statement: ‘I am excited to welcome Evan to Bambee as our new general counsel and chief strategy officer. Evan understands scale, complexity and excellence. The timing of his arrival aligns perfectly with our goals as the business transitions from an early-stage start-up to a more mature technology company.
‘But his energy, creativity, optimism and experience as an operator are why I am so thrilled to have him on the team. Not only from a legal perspective but also to shape our strategy surrounding corporate development.’
