CityFibre has appointed George Wareing as Sales Director. George brings 18 years of experience in the cable and mobile sectors.

In his new role at CityFibre, George will be focused on leading the sales and business development team to drive growth across the carrier, wholesale channel, mobile and public sectors. George said: “My immediate priority will be our teams and partners to ensure we’re delivering the best possible service.

As an alternative, full-fibre, communications infrastructure provider, we have the ability to transform digital infrastructure, alter the status quo for the benefit of all and meet rising demand and expectations for better service and affordable gigabit connectivity.
