Such was the pace of invention and development in technology, media and telecoms during the twentieth century that it seemed hard to believe the twenty first could rival it. And yet with the daily advent of new and more sophisticated media and, importantly, media consumers, the pressure on organisations to engage with and drive new technologies and forms of communication is ever growing.
Leadership has taken on a new and more complex dimension as a result, and Perrett Laver’s experience has involved work both specifically in the TMT sector and in those broader roles and organisations most affected by developments within it.
Perrett Laver has a track record of senior appointments across some of the world’s leading technology and telecoms organisations, along with a substantial number of Chief Executive and Board-level appointments in broadcast, online and print media organisations. Whether working for large corporations such as Pearson or Deutsche Telekom, or with distinctive global brands such as Lonely Planet and Oxford Analytica, we continually seek to identify those individuals whose horizons are well beyond the norm.
Sample appointments include:
Chief Executive of the world’s leading academic publisher;
Chief Executive of global television production house;
Chief Executive of large diversified media group;
senior UK leadership team of global mobile telephone network;
functional leadership team for FTSE 10 telecoms company;
Managing Director of leading global syndicated content provider;
Chief Executive and leadership team of major digital music channel;
senior team for market leading IT solutions company.
