KT SkyLife has appointed Ji Jeong-yong, former CEO of KTcs, as its new chief executive.
According to KT SkyLife on the 27th, Ji took office the same day following a shareholders' meeting and board meeting.
The company described Ji as "a professional manager with experience in telecommunications technology and field sales as a leader of KT's network division and regional headquarters, who has also served as CEO of an affiliate (KTcs)."
The appointment effectively concludes the affiliate personnel reshuffle following the inauguration of KT CEO Park Yoon-young. Previously, KT SkyLife had appointed Cho Il as CEO in March, but after Cho announced his resignation, the company had been operating under an acting CEO system led by Vice President Kim Sang-gyun, head of management planning.
The shareholders' meeting also approved the appointment of Choi Se-jun, head of the strategy division at KT's customer business unit, and Kang Hyun-gu, head of group synergy at KT's strategy office, as non-executive directors. "We appointed them as non-executive directors to secure expertise in the media and telecommunications business and to strengthen group synergy," a KT SkyLife official said.
