MLL Telecom has appointed Kirste Johnston (pictured) as strategic client director for Scotland and North of England.
Johnston has 30 years’ experience in the tech and comms industry and will bring knowledge and expertise in consultative technical sales, sales strategy and leadership to her new role.
Most recently, Johnston was Vodafone’s sector head for Scottish Government. That followed other roles leading the mid-market sector team in Scotland and Northern Ireland, and supporting and developing digital transformation strategy programmes and sales in the public and devolved government sector. She joined Vodafone from Barclay Telecom in Scotland, where she was strategic business manager, having joined from TalkTalk Business - Opal.
“I am delighted to be at MLL Telecom as strategic client director for Scotland and North of England, where there is a major opportunity for the company to help transform and digitally evolve sectors such as blue light, NHS, and local government,” said Johnston. “With the support and drive of our experienced team here in Scotland, I am very excited and confident that MLL will continue to build on its success in the region.”
Shaun Ledgerwood, CEO, MLL Telecom, said, “Having Kirste join us in Scotland is a major coup for MLL. Scotland is a hugely important market for our company, and we are committed to accelerating our market presence there while continuing to deliver the high quality and responsive customer service we are known for throughout the region.”
