Paul continued “Phil has been the driving force behind the remarkable success story that is Causeway Technologies and it is a great honour to be handed the baton by him. We will be working very closely in the future as I build on the impressive work that he has spearheaded.”
In his new role, Paul will head the executive senior leadership and guide the day-day operations of a workforce of more than 500 employees addressing the needs of over 3,000 customers worldwide.
