Bluente Appoints Sue Stephens as Global Vice President of Sales

Bluente today announced the appointment of Sue Stephens as Global Vice President of Sales, strengthening the company’s leadership team as it expands globally and helps more organisations adopt AI-powered solutions for complex, multilingual work.

Sue joins Bluente following nearly eight years at Meta, where she built and scaled businesses across Asia Pacific. After relocating from Dublin to Singapore in 2019, she helped develop markets from the ground up across Southeast Asia, building teams, shaping go-to-market strategies and finding product-market fit in a region defined by diverse customers, cultures and commercial environments. Her leadership spanned key markets including Malaysia, the Philippines, Australia and New Zealand. Across these roles, Sue led high-performing sales teams, partnered with businesses at different stages of growth and delivered triple-digit growth.

Before Meta, Sue held roles at LinkedIn, Canon and Hewlett-Packard. She brings more than two decades of experience across sales, customer success, people leadership and go-to-market strategy in EMEA and APAC.

Sue joins Bluente at an important stage in the company’s growth. As demand for secure, enterprise-grade AI accelerates, Bluente is expanding its global customer base and deepening its work with legal, financial and other professional teams whose most critical workflows cross languages, formats and borders.

As Global Vice President of Sales, Sue will lead Bluente’s global sales organisation and work closely with customers to understand their evolving needs. She will also help shape Bluente’s go-to-market strategy, build and develop its commercial teams, and bring customer insights into how the company develops and delivers its technology.

“Bluente is entering an exciting new phase of growth,” said Daphne Tay, CEO and Co-Founder of Bluente. “Sue combines an exceptional track record in sales with a deep understanding of customers, products and people. Her experience building teams and businesses across markets will be instrumental as we scale globally and help more organisations make AI foundational to how they work.”

Sue’s appointment reflects Bluente’s continued investment in building a world-class leadership team capable of supporting customers across markets, industries and increasingly complex workflows.

“I’m excited to join Bluente at such a pivotal stage,” said Sue Stephens. “Bluente is solving real and consequential problems for global organisations, and the opportunity ahead is significant. I look forward to building alongside the team, partnering closely with our customers and helping bring Bluente’s technology to organisations around the world.”
