We are sad to announce the passing of long time IBM team member Harold Potts on January 19, 2025.
Harold retired in 2007 after an illustrious 40 year career with IBM having joined the organisation in
the late 1960s as an Office Products Administration Manager. He rose to leadership roles
over the years including Supply and Inventory Manager Australia before leading up to 100
staff as Global Services Finances Manager Australian Accounts before taking on his final
position of Global Services Technical Services Finance Manager. In 1985 Harry, his wife
Moya and children Alison, Christopher and Sarah moved to Tokyo for two years with IBM at
the height of the company’s Japanese presence. They welcomed their child Emily while
living there. Harry treasured his time at IBM and always enjoyed the innovative and
collaborative environment and had many cherished friends over his career there. He will be
very missed by his loving family and friends.
