Lee joins as CFO andfarrives from Morgan Stanley, where he spent his career most recently as Managing of Director and Head of Technology, Media and Telecommunications for Australia and New Zealand.
Between them, McNamara and Lee bring almost five decades of combined leadership experience. A former management consultant and alum from the Stanford Graduate School of Business, McNamara’s career spans go-to-market leadership roles across the United States, Europe and Australia, including as Chief Revenue Officer at the global HR platform Remote and at Glassdoor. Lee spent his career across some of the world’s leading investment institutions, including Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, Macquarie Group, and McKinsey & Company, most recently advising many of the region’s largest technology companies on growth and capital markets strategy.
These appointments come at a defining point in InDebted’s growth journey, with the business posting group revenue growth of 42% year-on-year. Together, they round out InDebted’s executive team as the company operates across six regions and four core products spanning the collections lifecycle: Collect, Receive, Release and Comply. “Chris and Brendan are exactly the calibre of operators I’d hoped we’d find, ” said Josh Foreman, Founder of InDebted. “Bringing them on is a genuine reflection of how far this business has come, and I’m confident they’re the right team to lead it into its next chapter.” “InDebted has built agentic technology that runs across the entire collections lifecycle to disrupt a sector that hasn’t seen innovation for years,” said McNamara. “It’s already redefining the collections experience for consumers and delivering a step-change in economic outcomes for our clients and I’m excited to help scale that impact further and faster.” “I’ve admired InDebted’s progress for years and share Josh’s vision for where the business could go, ” said Lee. “Taking on an operating role after a career in investment banking is a big shift, but the opportunity to help build a category-defining world class business out of Australia, with genuinely global reach, is one I couldn’t pass up.”
