I am honored to join the HubSpot board, and can't wait to work with the team in achieving their mission."

Most recently, Jill served as President, COO, and CEO-elect of Fleetmatics. Other previous roles include SVP/General Manager at Intuit and VP/General Manager for a portfolio of industry-specific business management software companies acquired by Intuit. Prior to Intuit, Jill was division President of a customer contact outsourcing company serving enterprise clients in the financial services and technology spaces.

"As the first outside director on HubSpot's board, it's been amazing to see the company grow from a startup to the category market leader. HubSpot is in great shape, and I am pleased to turn the director baton to Jill, whose executive background will serve the company well as it continues to grow,"  said Larry Bohn.
