He succeeded Pamela Maynard. Caserta is no longer Avanade’s CEO: the company says Chris Howarth took over on February 3, 2026, when Caserta left to join Microsoft.
When did Rodrigo Caserta become Avanade CEO?
Avanade announced the appointment on August 15, 2024, and said Caserta would assume the role on September 1. The company described the change as a succession from Pamela Maynard, who left the CEO position at the end of August to take a role at Microsoft. Avanade’s August 15, 2024 announcement
Who is Rodrigo Caserta?
Before becoming CEO, Caserta was Avanade’s Global Technology Business Group Lead. The company’s announcement also noted that he had served as General Manager of Brazil and later as President of Growth Markets. Avanade said he joined nearly a decade before the appointment and that, in those leadership roles, he led revenue and headcount growth across APAC and Latin America. The announcement did not give numerical performance figures for those results.
Avanade Board Chair Karthik Narain, who was also group chief executive of Accenture Technology, described Caserta’s enterprise and mid-market experience and understanding of clients and employees as reasons for the appointment. That was the company’s stated rationale, not an independent assessment.
