“I am thrilled to have Scott join our Board. His experience building and scaling GoDaddy’s business from multiple perspectives over seven years as President, COO, CFO and ultimately CEO will be extremely valuable as we continue to grow and scale the business,” said René Lacerte, CEO and Founder at Bill.com. “At GoDaddy, Scott expanded the company’s product offerings to include a variety of online services and tools to support the needs of growing businesses. He also created a consistently great user experience and scaled that across millions of customers around the world. I look forward to his insights at the board,” Lacerte added.
Scott Wagner served as CEO for GoDaddy from 2017 to 2019. Prior to that he was President, COO and CFO from 2012 to 2017.

During Scott’s tenure, GoDaddy grew from approximately 9 million to 19 million customers and from approximately $900 million to $3 billion in annual revenues as the company added new products, expanded internationally and continued to improve its customer experience. In 2018, GoDaddy was named to Fortune’s Future 50, a ranking of technology companies best positioned for breakout growth.
“I have followed Bill.com for some time now because of their passion for helping SMBs and fantastic product experience --- two things that are near and dear to my heart,” noted Wagner. “It’s a privilege to serve on the board of a company that is focused on making technology easier and more accessible for people who want to build their business, serve more customers, and create jobs.”
Scott joined GoDaddy from global private equity firm Kohlberg Kravis Roberts (KKR) where he was a partner and one of the leaders of KKR Capstone, KKR’s portfolio operations team. Prior to KKR, Scott was with the Boston Consulting Group.
