Full Fibre Provider Hyperoptic Appoint New UK Director of Regulation

Friday, Jun 28th, 2024 (12:01 am) - Score 680
Hyperoptic HQ London Hammersmith

City-focused broadband ISP Hyperoptic, which has so far extended their gigabit full fibre (FTTP/B) network to cover “more than” 1.6 million UK homes (as well as 300k customers) across parts of 64 towns and cities, has appointed ex-BT figure Kathryn Bowden to be their the new Director of Regulation, Policy, Risk, and Compliance.

Kathryn’s career began at BT, where she contributed to Openreach’s regulatory market reviews and established new compliance frameworks. Following her tenure at BT, Kathryn also held “significant roles” at the Post Office’s telecommunications division and Shell Energy.

NOTE: KKR acquired a majority (75%) equity stake in Hyperoptic during 2019 (here) and the operator, which is home to c. 2,000 staff, has so far secured over £600m in debt to fund its growth.

Richard Woodward, Chief Financial Officer at Hyperoptic, said: “We are excited to have Kathryn join Hyperoptic. Her extensive experience in regulation, compliance, and policy, coupled with her practical approach to risk management, will be invaluable as we continue to grow and evolve. Kathryn’s commitment to regulatory excellence and customer-centric values aligns perfectly with our mission to provide the best in industry compliance assurance and enterprise risk management.”
