MARKET RELEASE

 

 

Telstra announces new Group Executive for

Consumer & Small Business

 

Wednesday, 31 August 2022 - Telstra today announced Brad Whitcomb had been
appointed as the new Group Executive for Consumer and Small Business
(C&SB).

Incoming Telstra Chief Executive Officer, Vicki Brady, said Brad would join
Telstra with extensive global experience in telecommunications customer roles.

"I am delighted to welcome Brad to the team to replace Michael Ackland, who
has been appointed our Chief Financial Officer," said Ms Brady.

"Brad has had a remarkable career with a long list of customer-focussed roles
 across the US, Japan and Australia. In his current role as Chief Customer
Officer for NBN Co, he is accountable for delivering more than $5 billion in
annual wholesale broadband services revenue across a range of access
technologies, giving him an intrinsic understanding of the Australian telco
market."

Brad has spent just over eight years at NBN Co in various roles, including
accountability for residential customers, strategy, culture and
transformation. He spent two years as Vodafone Hutchison Australia's chief
strategy and business transformation officer and has held various other global
and national roles.

"While much of his career has been in telco, he has also helped found a
software business, worked for an energy utility and a smart metering business.
Brad's mix of strategic ability, strong leadership and telecommunications
track record position him well for the role," said Ms Brady.

"Brad currently works closely with NBN Co's retail partners to deliver
end-to-end customer solutions to Australian consumers so he understands that
customer experience is at the heart of our business."

Brad starts with Telstra on 16 January next year. Current C&SB Telstra
Executive, Amanda Hutton, will act in the Group Executive role until that
time.
