CloudBees launches London office as primary EMEA hub

CloudBees has opened a London office that will serve as its primary hub in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. The site adds product, engineering and go-to-market roles, broadens the company's presence in the United Kingdom, and places it closer to the regulated enterprises that make up much of its European customer base.

Europe, the Middle East and Africa now account for almost a quarter of CloudBees' annual recurring revenue. The company has more than 100 enterprise customers across 23 countries, many of them in financial services, including BNP Paribas, Hugo Boss, Sainsbury's and Fidelity Investments. The opening coincided with the company's EMEA Customer Advisory Board, which met in London that week.

Unify, CloudBees' product, functions as a governance layer with context and control-plane capabilities. It enforces consistent policy and evidence across every tool, team and workflow, and it makes each change, whether human or AI, visible, auditable and accountable before it reaches production. Existing toolchains do not have to be replaced.

The company states that as enterprises adopt agentic coding, software is created faster than most teams can review, secure and validate. Information on open London roles is available on its careers site. CloudBees was founded in 2010 and is backed by Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Bridgepoint Capital, HSBC, Golub Capital, Delta-v Capital, Matrix Partners and Lightspeed Venture Partners.

“London is not only renowned for its exceptional talent pool and being home to some of the world's largest regulated businesses, but it is an increasingly important hub for AI innovation. Our expansion within London is a key milestone for CloudBees to strengthen its European presence, alongside the customers and engineers who are setting the standard for how software gets governed,” said Moritz Plassnig, CEO of CloudBees.

“Every enterprise now has to answer new questions about AI-generated code, all the way up to the board: can we prove what changed, who approved it, and why was it safe to ship? Regulated firms in the UK have been answering those questions for years. That standard is becoming the norm globally, and it shapes how we secure software delivery for every customer,” said Ashwin Mithra, CISO at CloudBees.
