KUALA LUMPUR: DiGi.Com Bhd said its chief executive officer (CEO) Albern Murty will join its Norwegian parent Telenor ASA’s executive management team as the executive vice president for the Developed Asia cluster.
In a statement yesterday, DiGi said the appointment will be effective from Aug 1 this year.
Albern will retain his position as the CEO of DiGi but will now oversee Telenor’s operations in Thailand and Malaysia.
“The cluster role means Albern as DiGi CEO will be represented in the Group Executive Management of Telenor, speaking on behalf of the Developed Asia cluster — Thailand and Malaysia,” said DiGi.
“I am pleased to have Albern rejoin the group executive management team to head up the Developed Asia cluster. DiGi is a front runner in many ways in Telenor Group, home to many of the most digitally savvy customers and employees in the company. Albern brings this expertise to our table,” said Sigve Brekke, the president and CEO of Telenor Group.
Brekke said Albern’s main priority will continue to be the performance and value creation of DiGi, but he will work closely with the dtac team to develop initiatives of common value and interest, aligned with the business archetype shared by the two business units.
