Communications Platform as a Service vendor, TelcoSwitch has appointed Howard Stevens as its new Chief Executive Officer.
Stevens brings over 20 years of executive experience in multi-national high growth environments. He spent eight years as SVP & Global Head of Sales at enterprise software leader SAP, where he developed telecoms into one of the company’s top three fastest growth markets.
Most recently Stevens worked as Chief Executive Officer for Vista Private Equity backed TOMIA, a market leader in roaming and inter-operator connectivity solutions for global carriers, guiding the business to its successful acquisition by Lumine Group in 2022.
Stevens takes over from current CEO, Matt Mansell, who oversaw the business and its launch of the CallSwitch One platform following the acquisition of TelcoSwitch by investor Queen’s Park Equity (QPE).
Mansell retains a position on the TelcoSwitch Board of Directors and will continue to oversee the technology strategy of the wider group of TelcoSwitch businesses.
Stevens commented “TelcoSwitch is a hugely exciting business, with a powerful next-generation communications platform in CallSwitch One. The platform is delivered via a loyal and growing partner base, one that I am excited to work with as we continue accelerating CallSwitch One’s adoption. The work undertaken by Matt and his team to deliver a market-leading product to the channel in CallSwitch One will drive our growth aspirations in the next stage of our business”.
On the appointment, TelcoSwitch Chairman, Ivan Martin, commented “The Board and I express our gratitude to Matt for his excellent stewardship of the business, and delivering a class-leading communications platform in CallSwitch One that our valued partners are deploying at pace. In welcoming Howard as our Chief Executive Officer and retaining Matt on our Board of Directors, the team is further strengthened for this next phase of our business growth”.
Stevens takes up the role with immediate effect.
