Howard Watson appointed CEO Technology, Service & Operations
I’m delighted to announce the appointment of Howard Watson as CEO Technology, Service & Operations (TSO) and Group CIO.
Howard, who is currently BT chief architect and MD Global IT Platforms, possesses a broad knowledge of technical and operational leadership, with expertise in strategic development, business transformation and post-merger integration. He joined BT in 2011 from Cartesian a Telecoms software and consultancy company where he was managing director. Prior to that he was chief of transformation and technology for Virgin Media and chief technology and information officer at Telewest PLC.
Howard’s expertise in the telecoms industry and in innovating and delivering transformational products, will help TSO with the next stage of its journey.
The handover between Howard and Clive Selley will take place this quarter and Howard’s successor in TSO will be announced in due course.
Please join me in congratulating Howard and in wishing him continued success.
Gavin
