TORONTO – Saying the new management structure will facilitate further simplification of operations and integrated approaches to markets and functions, Rogers Communications today appointed Nadir Mohamed as president and COO of the company’s communications division: the cable and wireless sides.
Mohamed had been president and CEO of Rogers Wireless. Edward Rogers will continue as president of Rogers Cable while Robert Bruce, executive vice-president and chief marketing officer at Rogers Wireless, will become president of Rogers Wireless. The changes are effective immediately.
“Having achieved full ownership of all three of our operating companies, we are now proceeding to structure our operating management in a way that will take further advantage of the opportunities we can achieve from driving increased integration of our wireless and cable operations," said Ted Rogers, president and CEO of Rogers Communications Inc., in a statement.
“As technologies rapidly advance and converge, there are tremendous opportunities for Rogers to deliver increasingly innovative products and services that add significant value and convenience to our customers’ lives," continued Mr. Rogers. "As well, we have significant opportunities to continue leveraging many of the platforms and distribution channels of our wireless and cable businesses to drive further efficiencies and better returns. I have complete confidence in Nadir’s strong leadership abilities and his track record over many years of delivering innovation and profitable growth to capture these opportunities for Rogers."
