NCC Group PLC on Tuesday names Diji Akinwale as its first director of Strategy & Transformation, to help implement the Manchester-based cybersecurity company’s new direction. Akinwale joins from Guardian News & Media Ltd, where he was strategy director. In this role, NCC said that Akinwale supported the newspaper’s international growth whilst increasing recurring revenue and accelerating the development of its digital offering and capabilities. Akinwale will report directly to NCC Chief Executive Mike Maddison. Maddison has been CEO since July of last year. This past February, NCC announced its ‘next chapter’, which aims to deliver revenue from a broader service portfolio, addressing the full cyber security lifecycle, with deeper presence across sectors. Part of Akinwale’s responsibilities will be establishing a transformation management office resourced to deliver this next chapter of the strategy at pace, NCC said. CEO Maddison commented: ‘Diji’s experience successfully developing and delivering enterprise-level transformation projects for some of the world’s most important organisations supports my confidence that he will be a great asset to our group. Diji has a grounding in client services and his sector experience means he understands both how we and our clients operate.’ Shares in NCC were up 0.4% at 103.00 pence each in London on Tuesday morning.
