CHIEF Executive Officer (CEO) of Digicel (Barbados) Limited., Johnny Ingle, will be leaving the business after eight years with the telecommunications giant. The announcement has come six months after Ingle took the helm of Digicel Barbados in June of this year.

Speaking from Digicel’s head office in Warrens, Ingle said, “It is obviously an extremely difficult decision to step out of the role, however, it is a personal decision driven solely by the most important thing in my life, my family.”

Johnny, as he prefers to be called, joined the Digicel Group Operations Team in 2008 and quickly moved to the position of Commercial Director for Haiti before adopting similar roles in Antigua & Barbuda, British Virgin Islands, Anguilla and CEO roles in Dominica, then St. Kitts & Nevis markets.

Assuring that the company would be left in good hands, the ever upbeat Ingle continued, “It has been a great honour and privilege to serve my Digicel team and I say a heartfelt ‘thank you‘ to the truly extraordinary people of Barbados for your great kindness and support during my time as CEO here.”
