Callsign’s chief commercial and strategy officer Amir Nooriala leaves
Amir Nooriala has left his role as chief commercial and strategy officer at fraud prevention and digital identity technology provider Callsign after three years at the firm.
Nooriala joined Callsign in January 2020 following a stint at OakNorth Bank, where he served as chief operating officer for a year before pivoting to chief strategy officer. During this time, he helped the bank form partnerships with companies including Monzo, Clear Bank, MoneyBox, and Shield Pay.
Prior to this, he gained experience working at firms such as Accenture, Cisco and Barclays, where he spent more than 10 years.
Announcing his departure on LinkedIn, Nooriala says he is “taking a step back from day-to-day operational roles in tech start-up land” but adds he will still be involved in the space through board and advisory roles at firms including Konvi, IDWise, and Algbra, and via his angel investment company NBG Investments.
Following his departure from Callsign, Nooriala has announced he has partnered with VC veteran Daniel Cardenas-Clark to launch a new investment firm called Aurias.
He says the company will look to fully acquire “profitable, UK-based, small to mid-sized, tech-enabled businesses, which we will then operate and grow”.
