Internet service provider XDSL has appointed Marius Olivier as head of its commercial business as it plans an increased focus on enterprise.
"The appointment of Olivier will not only drive our enterprise business and enhance our service delivery to this sector but will also add to the collective experience of our core management team at XDSL," according to commercial director Danie Fourie.
XDSL says Olivier brings nearly three decades of experience at Telkom, where he gained knowledge through the development and lifecycle management of many wholesale products. XDSL plans to leverage this experience, which it hopes will assist it to secure new opportunities in the enterprise space and deliver additional value to existing clients.
"Olivier will develop and manage supplier relationships and further establish the XDSL brand in the enterprise space," the company says in a statement.
"The move to XDSL has provided me with an exciting opportunity to work with an innovative, dynamic organisation that is just as passionate about ICT as I am," says Olivier.
XDSL says Olivier's position requires quick, calculated decisions, agility to respond to market needs and provide customised solutions that are aligned with customer needs and requirements, something that appealed to him and will provide him with a new challenge.
"My goal is to ensure XDSL continues to deliver and improve their service experience and drive new opportunities and growth in the enterprise market. It is also important to understand and anticipate market influences and customer requirements, and deliver solutions that ensure we stand out from the rest of the market," says Olivier.
Olivier was involved in a number of areas within Telkom, including finance, technical demand forecast, commercial business, wholesale business as well as marketing and sales, providing him with wide exposure to many of the critical functions within a telco.
