“JT has a proud history of innovation and service, and I’m delighted to be joining the board at such an exciting time,” he said. “The telecoms sector continues to evolve rapidly, and JT is well-positioned to lead in areas such as advanced digital infrastructure, customer experience and world-class managed services.
“I look forward to working with the board and executive team to help shape JT’s future.”
