AuditBoard has appointed Raul Villar Jr. as its new CEO as it aims to scale its AI-powered risk management platform globally.
Villar, previously CEO at Paycor, brings a strong track record in growing SaaS companies. His leadership saw Paycor expand its market share, leading to its sale to Paychex for $4.1bn in April 2025. His experience in B2B SaaS and enterprise software aligns with AuditBoard’s mission to transform how firms handle risk, audit, and compliance.
Raul Villar Jr said, “I am incredibly excited to join AuditBoard, a company that has already established itself as a clear leader in the connected risk space with its innovative AI-driven platform and unwavering customer focus.
“The opportunity to build upon this foundation and further expand AuditBoard’s impact on how global enterprises navigate complex risk environments is immense. I look forward to working with the talented team at AuditBoard to drive continued innovation, deliver exceptional value to our customers, and achieve new levels of growth.”
AuditBoard has expanded internationally, recently launching in Germany. The company’s AI-driven tools help audit, risk, and compliance teams streamline workflows and gain clearer insights into enterprise risk.
Hg Capital partner Jonathan Wulkan said, “We are thrilled to welcome Raul Villar Jr. as AuditBoard’s new CEO. Raul’s extensive experience leading high-growth SaaS companies and his deep understanding of enterprise software will be invaluable as we continue to scale and innovate.
