Graham Charlton will assume the position of Softcat CEO from 1 August next year following eight years as Chief Financial Officer. He will succeed Graeme Watt who will become Non- Executive Chair of the Softcat board as Martin Hellawell steps down.
Further changes taking effect from 1 August 2022 include Richard Wyn Griffith taking up the position of Chief Commercial Officer running vendor alliances, cloud, cloud alliances and marketing. He also picks up responsibility for multi-national sales, customer experience and the ownership of some key strategic areas such as Softcat’s digital and data strategies.
