American Fork-based Springbrook Software, a provider of native cloud-based enterprise resource planning (ERP) software and payments solutions for local governments, has announced the appointment of Chris Dinkler as CEO.
Dinkler joins the company in an accelerated growth phase, as Springbrook expands its Cirrus cloud platform and advances its AI-driven Smart City initiative to support the digital transformation of local government.
Dinkler brings nearly three decades of experience leading high-growth software-as-a-service, ERP and workflow automation companies. His career has been focused on software that helps organizations manage core financial, operational and administrative processes more effectively, Springbrook said. Most recently, he served as president of Enverus, guiding its global go-to-market organization and helping scale the business beyond the $500 million annual recurring revenue milestone while expanding its customer base to more than 8,000 organizations worldwide.
“I’m honored to join Springbrook at such an important and exciting moment in its growth,” said Dinkler. “Local governments face increasing pressure to modernize, secure their operations, and meet rising citizen expectations. Springbrook already delivers the high-quality, modern solutions they need today, and we’re committed to taking that even further. My focus will be ensuring we stay ahead of what the market needs, both now and in the future.”
The company’s majority investor, Five Arrows, the alternative assets arm of Rothschild & Co., expressed confidence in the appointment.
“Chris brings the vision, operational discipline and customer-centric leadership that aligns perfectly with Springbrook’s strategic direction,” said William Heldfond, managing director at Five Arrows. “With Springbrook’s continued platform expansion and new purpose-built modules coming online, this is the right moment to welcome a leader who will further strengthen our ability to deliver world-class, purpose-built software and payments solutions for government.”
Dinkler succeeds Rob Bonavito, who has left the company.
