Nexfibre Appoints Ex-Openreach Veteran as New UK Chief Commercial Officer

Broadband network operator nexfibre, which shares some of their parentage with Virgin Media and O2 (harnessing the same build teams), has today announced the appointment of ex-Openreach veteran Ses Indy – where he spent 17 long years and held various senior roles – to be their new Chief Commercial Officer (CCO).

Indy has more than 25 years of experience across digital infrastructure and fixed telecommunications – mostly via Openreach and BT, holding various senior commercial leadership roles and working closely with major communications providers, including Sky Broadband, Vodafone and PXC, with a particular focus on wholesale strategy and customer growth.

At nexfibre, Indy will lead the company’s commercial strategy, revenue growth and customer engagement activities. His appointment comes at a key moment for the business as it progresses its planned £2bn acquisition of Netomnia in order to create a combined full fibre network footprint of approximately 8 million premises by the end of 2027.

Rajiv Datta, Chief Executive Officer of nexfibre, said:

“The board and I are delighted to welcome Ses to nexfibre. He brings deep industry expertise, a strong track record of commercial leadership and extensive experience of the wholesale broadband market. As we enter our next phase of growth and work towards creating a scaled national wholesale challenger, his leadership will be instrumental in expanding our commercial reach, strengthening customer partnerships and delivering on our long-term ambitions.”
