Telkom Kenya has appointed former Safaricom finance executive as its new Chief Finance Officer (CFO).
Mr Sundararaman Pattabiraman formerly of Safaricom was serving as the Head of Finance, Planning, and Analysis.
This comes as Telkom plans to restructure its functions to improve services to its customers.
Speaking to Citizen Digital, Telkom Kenya CEO Aldo Mareuse said strengthening of the management team was geared towards propelling the firm to new heights as it casts its sights on new business opportunities in the market.
"Mr Pattabiraman has distinguished himself as an exceptional leader with a proven and exquisite track record. His strong knowledge of the Kenyan telecommunications market and experience as both the market leader and challenger will be useful to Telkom in the near future,” Mareuse said.
