Computacenter plc ("Computacenter" or the "Company"), a leading independent
technology and services provider, is pleased to announce the appointment of
Keith Mortimer as Chief Financial Officer and Executive Director of the
Company with effect from 1 September 2025 (the "Appointment Date"). His

Keith joined Computacenter in 1999, and in his time with the Company has held
senior finance and commercial roles at a Group level, including leadership of
the financial reporting function and, in recent years, as the Director of
Group Commercial Finance. In those roles, Keith has played a significant part
in developing how we financially forecast and manage the business, and govern
our contracts through their lifecycle. He also has significant systems and
people experience acquired through playing a key role in the implementation of
our Group ERP systems and Group Operating Model.
Prior to joining Computacenter, Keith trained and qualified as a Chartered
Accountant with Arthur Andersen in London. He has a first-class bachelor's
degree in economics from the University of Exeter.
Mike Norris, Chief Executive Officer of Computacenter, commented:
"I look forward to working even more closely with Keith, as he takes up the
position of Chief Financial Officer. His detailed knowledge of the business
from end to end will be invaluable in helping us achieve our growth ambitions
for the business, particularly as we continue to make significant investment
in our systems, tools and processes to enhance both our operating efficiency
and the customer experience".
