Telecom New Zealand has appointed Matt Crockett, currently general manager of its  Wired division, as the general manager of Telecom Wholesale, following its announcement last week that it would separate its wholesale and retail divisions. He replaces Tim Lusk who is retiring.
Before joining Telecom, Crockett was an associate principal at the global management consulting firm McKinsey and Company. He was a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford University where he completed PhD in Management.

Mark Ratcliffe, the Telecom executive in charge of network and information technology and wholesale, said: "I can’t think of anyone better placed than Matt to ensure Telecom Wholesale picks up the challenge of the new environment and runs with it.”
