Alvarez (pictured) was previously the company’s deputy managing director. He replaces David Crawford, who will be taking up a CEO role with an organisation outside of the sector.
Alfonso Alvarez, managing director, Cellnex UK, commented, “I am looking forward to my new role within our company very much, and we will build on the great work that we have achieved with David over the last few years.
“Cellnex UK has an innovative approach to business, and 2023 brings us huge opportunities to work with our customers and partners to deliver the essential connectivity that communities across the UK need to thrive.”
David Crawford, the company’s outgoing managing director, added, “Alfonso will be a great leader for the UK business. He has been with the Cellnex group for more than 20 years and has been an integral part of the UK management team for more than three years.
“Alfonso is passionate about building a successful customer-centric business and will continue to show that Cellnex UK is a key enabling partner for many companies in the UK.”
