Damon commented: “After a successful 20 years at Switch, it felt like a natural time for us to evolve how we operate as a business for our clients. Lynne has provided invaluable input to the Board since she joined us, and has driven significant revenue for all of the Switch business far beyond her previous role as our Communications Director. Having Lynne alongside me as Chief Strategy Officer formalises the responsibility for running and developing Switch as we continue to develop and grow.
“This also created an excellent opportunity for us to recognise the specialist and expert knowledge we have in house as well as provide the opportunities for everyone to achieve their full potential; these promotions are a testament to this. We are really excited to have such a strong leadership and management team in place who have demonstrated their desire and commitment to managing our teams and supporting the Board to drive our strategy and deliver our cultural and commercial objectives.”
