FREQUENTIS UK Appoints New Managing Director
The UK and Ireland subsidiary of FREQUENTIS, a global supplier of communication and information systems for control centres, named Mike Garrod as the replacement for the current UK Managing Director, Andy Madge, who will retire effective 1 July 2024.
Mike Garrod joined Frequentis UK on 13 May to begin a phased handover to close Andy’s seven successful years as Managing Director of Frequentis subsidiary in UK and Ireland. Prior to joining Frequentis, Mike Garrod served as the Managing Director of MKC Training, where he has overseen operations since September 2019. With a career spanning 16 years at the UK-based defence technology company QinetiQ, Mike has held various leadership roles in engineering, programme management, and business development, working on projects ranging from global navigation systems to electronic warfare.
“The Frequentis Executive Board expresses its sincere gratitude to Andy for his contributions over the last seven years,” says Norbert Haslacher, Frequentis CEO. “Under Andy’s leadership, Frequentis UK gained prominent contracts including Metropolitan Police Service, West Yorkshire Fire Service, Maritime and Coastguard Agency and UK Ambulance Radio Programme, as well as fostering relationships with the long-term partners Ministry of Defence and National Air Traffic Services (NATS). We wish Andy all the best in his retirement and would like to warmly welcome Mike to continue to lead the company into its next phase of development.”
The transition between Andy Madge and Mike Garrod will be managed from May until the end of July 2024.
